Creating packages another plataform

[rodrigofariatavares]

Hi Stevens,

I have the sources.
I create this rpmrc.

arch_canon:     i686:   i686    1
os_canon:  Linux:  Linux  1
buildarchtranslate: i586: i386
buildostranslate: Linux: Linux
arch_compat: i586: i486
arch_compat: i486: i386

Then i run this command:

rpmbuild --rcfile=rpmrc package/SPECS/package.spec
After i run rpmbuild -bb but not create with i686.


What's happening ?

Best regards,

Rodrigo Faria Tavares
