I think the attached patch is better, although I am having issues actually building any of the ARM kernels. Whenever I try I end up with:

tar: config/armv7l/generic: Not found in archive tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors error: Architecture is not included: armv7l

Does this mean I need to actually have armv7l in config.conf and config/ instead of arm or in addition?

Try this patch:

This doesn't quite work. Reason being the resulting spec file ends up with "ExclusiveArch: arm", when in fact it needs to be "ExclusiveArch: %arm". I've tested the two by manually editing the resulting spec files, and can confirm the only way it picks up the different ARM arch is by using %arm (much in the same way as %ix86). Any ideas on how I get it to work? I have tried the patch and also tried replacing "arm*)" with the output of "rpm --eval '%arm'" like i386, but no joy.

Ah excellent, that looks like it does the job. Now to test the builds and make anymore changes before I resubmit the patch.
