Well, you can't grab the intel RPM and expect it to compile, period. I am
sure there WASN'T a PPC RPM. That is a fact of life. Are you talking
source or binary RPM anyways? Don't confuse the two.
Get the source tar.gz and compile it yourself. It is really easy and it
compiles nicely (unlike some other stuff I have had to "massage" lately).
