Bug#831692: RFS: skiboot/5.2.4-2 update

[Frederic Bonnard <frediz@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors, Gianfranco,

I am looking for a sponsor for the package "skiboot". This is a packaging update :

skiboot (5.2.4-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Forced no-pie for Ubuntu 16.10 as previous change was not enough : in 16.10
    gcc's default change to build PIE by default.
