Description
While packaging system-config-printer, we found an error.
Error information
```bash
checking build system type... ./config.guess: unable to guess system type
This script, last modified 2015-01-01, has failed to recognize
the operating system you are using. It is advised that you
download the most up to date version of the config scripts from
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.guess;hb=HEAD
and
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.sub;hb=HEAD
If the version you run (./config.guess) is already up to date, please
send the following data and any information you think might be
pertinent to in order to provide the needed
information to handle your system.

configure: error: cannot guess build type; you must specify one
```
Solved
Added autoreconf in the prepare() function in the PKGBUILD. Here is the code:
prepare() {
autoupdate
autoreconf -fiv
}
However, after adding code, it occurred bash scripts errors (Related to m4 macros not expanding), so I added autoconf-archive to makedepends according to my previous packaging experience. Finally, it solved.
Advice
Please consider updating the configure script tools(Especially config.guess file). As part of our duty, we do suggest our upstreams doing this once and for all instead.
I've updated config.sub and config.guess as we did for other OpenPrinting projects when people reported configuration problems on RiSC. I hope it fixes it.
