Description Michael Schwendt 2011-08-29 10:50:43 UTC 
$ rpm -q nspluginwrapper
nspluginwrapper-1.4.4-1.fc15.x86_64

$ rpm -q --qf %{description} nspluginwrapper|head -2
nspluginwrapper makes it possible to use Netscape 4 compatible plugins
compiled for x86_64 into Mozilla for another architecture, e.g. x86_64.

Uh? x86_64 = x86_64!

[...]

Spec file says:

| ExclusiveArch:  %{ix86} x86_64 ppc

| %description
| nspluginwrapper makes it possible to use Netscape 4 compatible plugins
| compiled for %{_arch} into Mozilla for another architecture, e.g. x86_64.

This also makes the ppc build claim that it can use ppc plugins on x86_64.
Comment 1 Martin Stransky 2011-10-27 14:47:45 UTC 
Fixed in rawhide. And yes, ppc plugins can be run on x86_64, nspluginwrapper uses quemu for it (although it's not configured on Fedora).
