Unfortunately rpm (and yum) do not yet provide a "hint" or "suggest" flag. So
what you can do is
- a) give up using that lib
- b) impose using that lib, by adding a conditional Requires / BuildRequires
(something along:
%ifarch ppc
stuff specific to PPC
%endif
do not forget to take care of both ppc and ppc64


If you go with option b (which I would recommend), rpm will check for the
existence of those libs when installing (and install them if they are missing).
Due to the missing "suggest" option of current rpm, there is no clean way of
building with a Requires for librtas but installing without.
