Reported FPC ticket -> https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/589 and also modified EPEL guidelines as well -> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL:Packaging#Node.js Once that macro become available in EPEL6 stable, I will rebuild my nodejs EPEL packages to use %{nodejs_arches} macro wherever its needed.
