Description Tuomo Soini 2012-01-31 07:44:47 UTC

* Wed Jan 11 2012 Orion Poplawski <orion.com> - 3.0.1-0.20.1
- Remove ExclusiveArch ppc64

This change is against epel policy - only ppc64 pacakge can be provided because base os provides xerces-c for i386 and x86_64 arches.

Please revert this change and remove bad package from i386 and x86_64 repos.

In fact source package shouldn't really be xerces-c - it should be xerces-c-ppc64 to notify one arch only nature of this package.

No, this is right. ;)

We can't just replace the package on ppc64, due to the way koji works we need to use it in all channels if we are building it.
