  ii  auditd                                    1:2.3.7-1ubuntu1                      ppc64el      User space tools for security auditing

  I found a discussion of the need for ppc64le support in audit in the
  archives for the linux-audit ml

  https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-
  audit/2014-December/msg00003.html

  The full changeset for the ppc64le support is in trunk upstream:
