You seem to be confused about why your "%ifnarch" usage in

doesn't work. It is because you build "noarch", where the arch doesn't

broken, it would still ship the noarch build for ppc/ppc64.

This is something that has been a topic before. A "noarch" package
which depends on arch-specific packages, which are not available for
all arches, cannot really be noarch or should use ExcludeArch properly
(which is another ugly hack).
Just to clarify, the (F7+ at least, not sure about Extras) compose tools do
honor Exclude/ExclusiveArch on noarch packages.
