[Spacewalk-list] Failed to sync repo that as some rpms on ppc64 arch

[Paul Robert Marino]

This is just a warning don't worry about that you might be syncing to
the wrong yum repo. It doesn't actually break any thing or cause the
sync to result in a failure.
In truth its very odd to mix x86 and ppc packages in the same repo,
and while it can be done it was not intended in the original spec for
yum repos.
