You are correct, the "identical architecture" means the same machine hardware name as shown by the -m option of the uname command.
Thanks for clearing that up. It just seemed something of a blindly obvious statement; surely nobody would expect an RPM for an Intel based machine to install on a PowerPC machine? that I though it might be referring to something else.
I mean you can't actually install an x86_64 RPM on a ppc64le machine as the rpm command will bomb out telling you it is from an incompatible architecture if you try. It's why you have noarch packages which can be installed on anything.
