+Subject: [PATCH] packlib.c: support dictionary byte order dependent
+
+The previous dict files are NOT byte-order independent, in fact they are
+probably ARCHITECTURE SPECIFIC.
+Create the dict files in big endian, and convert to host endian while
+load them. This could fix the endian issue on multiple platform.
+
+Signed-off-by: Hongxu Jia <hongxu.jia@windriver.com>
+Upstream-Status: Pending
+
+We can't use the endian.h, htobe* and be*toh functions because they are
+not available on older versions of glibc, such as that found in RHEL
+5.9.
+
+Change to checking endian and directly calling bswap_* as defined in
+byteswap.h.
