Re: installing ppc and ppc64 packages together

[Marvin Heffler <heffler us ibm com>]

I think this is the root of my problem.
On my development systems I had a .rpmrc file in my home directory that
listed what macros to search, but I had left out /etc/rpm/macros from the
list. The systems did have transaction_color in /etc/rpm/macros, so I was
just ignoring it. Now that I better understand the situation I have corrected
my .rpmrc file. Thanks for the help.
