At the risk of sounding like an newbie, is is possible to build the RPMS for all architectures on the same box at the same time? I would really like to automate this, so that I can keep track of the RPMS's and build them into my own future repo. (That's another project, I'm sure I'll come to the list for that one!)
Shouldn't be any problems doing it. With the right environment variables you can build any architecture on any other. I.e., I've built ARM and MIPS under x86 before. Tricky, but certainly doable.
At least I know now for sure that it is doable! Great - Well, I guess I better start planning on learning Mock - although I am very open to hearing best practice methods of compiling software cross architecture, if anyone has a blog or website I'd give it a shot.
