Does not work. Sorry.
Firmware-addon-dell is a noarch package. So if you use "ExclusiveArch:
...", it fails to build. The reason I put in the ExcludeArch line was to
keep the compose scripts from dropping it into the ppc fedora repo. I am
perfectly happy to add additional excludearch directives if you send me a
patch.
Then its not a noarch package. while it does not compile it is arch specific
and should be treated as such.
