I am not sure of what exact Packages you are talking about:
1) LTP-RPMs (ltp-devel-1.0-0.0)
(https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=3382&package_id=38846&release_id=588973),

or,

2) LTP Source (ltp-20080331)
(https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=3382&package_id=3308&release_id=588444),

We do not release the binary code of any architecture. We release the
source code only, and, we presume that it will compile across all Linux
Architectures. Only when there are cross compilation issue(s), we try to
modify our Makefile(s) to suit everybody´s requirement. Along with the
source code for LTP SOurce Package, i also release the results of LTP
run on architectures only for those machine which are available at my
disposal (i386, x86_64, ia64, ppc64 & s390x).
If you/anybody has access to any other architecture, then please send me
the HTML output result for the same architecture, i will make them
available too on sf.net release directory.

Regarding the LTP-Devel RPMs that we started releasing for the first
time, the no. of architectures are limited just because of the same
reason of machines of other architectures not available to me. If you
have them at your disposal, create the devel package on it and send me
the same. This information i have already conveyed during my LTP-Devel
RPM release mail:

......................
Dear All,

LTP Announces the creation of LTP-DEVEL RPM Packages for i386, x86_64,
ia64, ppc64 & s390x. The same can be picked up from:

http://ltp.sourceforge.net/,

The Original motivation to create these Packages is to allow developers
to write unit testcases in LTP, without the need to download the entire
LTP test tree. Now, they can straightaway write Test Cases and can
integrate them to LTP in future. The README.ltp-devel file contains all
instructions to do so.

I would kindly request the community to create similar LTP-DEVEL Package
for other architectures as well, and, share the same with us.

Happy Testing--
Subrata
