Created attachment 390016 [details] python-2.6.4-18.fc13 build log Description of problem: The dtrace patch that was added doesn't seem to have anything for the ppc/ppc64 architectures in it, so the build fails with a #error unknown architecture. I'm surprised it has sparc, but not ppc/ppc64. The full build log is attached.
Ah right, that is from phelper.d which is not useful to systemtap (only to dtrace). I'll suggest a patch that excludes it. dtrace only works on x86 and sparc, which is why that file doesn't have any other alternatives.

Mark went ahead and did this (see bug 545179); the new patch (attachment 390110 [details]) has no arch-specific code (other than a few sparc-specific "nop" hooks). I've committed the new patch to dist-cvs; tagged as: python-2_6_4-19_fc13 and built into dist-f13 : http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=155535 I've verified the feature still works on an i686 box (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=545179#c16 for a way of testing this; would be nice to verify that the feature works on ppc builds also). Hopefully this should now fix the ppc/ppc64 builds; marking this bug as MODIFIED.
-19 does indeed build again on ppc/ppc64. Thanks for the quick response, I very much appreciate it.
