Did you get yourself a PS3? :)

This is normal, because YDL ppc64 is 32-bit userspace vs Fedora ppc64
which I believe is 64-bit userspace (I believe most if not all x86_64
distributions are 64-bit userspace).

This was ultimately the reason why we stuck with YDL 5.0 for the
initial support for the PS3, as we had a lot of trouble building RPMs
on Fedora 6 ppc64.

P.S. I am not sure what DongInn did in terms of PS3 support for OSCAR,
but for SystemImager, I created a new arch called ppc64-ps3 to
distinguish ppc64 with the PlayStation 3 -- I guess for the most part,
binaries built on PS3 can be used on other archs -- except for things
that are kernel dependent, like SystemImager.  So I'm not sure whether
we also want to create a new arch ppc64-ps3 for OSCAR.

Cheers,

Bernard
