[Bug 1527376] Re: ubuntu-minimal and grub-ieee1275 depends powerpc-utils other than powerpc-ibm-utils

[Adam Conrad]

minimal depends on both, actually, and grub has a valid reason for using
powerpc-utils' version of ofpath, IIRC, though we can and should fix
that and move the dependency over to using ppc-ibm-utils instead, even
on Mac platforms.  Then we'd ship both on powerpc/ppc64, and only the
ibm utils on ppc64el.

Title:
  ubuntu-minimal and grub-ieee1275 depends powerpc-utils  other than
  powerpc-ibm-utils

Status in powerpc-utils package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Currently, ubuntu-minimal and grub-ieee1275 depends on powerpc-utils
  on Ubuntu/ppc64el architecture.

  powerpc-utils is suppose to work on powerpc, while powerpc-ibm-utils
  is supposed to be the tool version for ppc64el.

  I would like to move the dependency of these packages from powerpc-
  utlis to powerpc-ibm-utils.
