Yeah, but EPEL builds against RHEL, not centos. :(

Yeah, but likely not shipped by RHEL. ;(
For future reference, how does one check to see the status of a package
(e.g. whether or not it's actually shipped by RHEL)?
So, we could do limited arch packages here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL:Packaging#Limited_Arch_Packages
but it's a pretty big pain. It's either that or just exclude ppc. ;(
So what's the recommended course of action? ocaml-findlib is a
dependency for another package we are attempting to get into EPEL, so I
would have to excludearch for that one too.
