The second phase build of c7-ppc64le is wrapping up. I’m down to 5 source package failures (atlas, certmonger, python-urwid, swig, virt-top). This build was done atop c7-ppc64le VMs instead of fedora 21 ppc64le VMs. We hope to publicly share the rpms, build logs and mock configs shortly. Install images and repos will have to wait until the altarch SIG [1] is formally approved.

I have also built most of the c7-updates tree [2]  which contains all the security and bug errata post RHEL 7.1 GA.
