Hi, 
to build packages, I stop using rpmbuild and use mock [1] 
Now I do commands like this : 
rpmbuild -bs dvdstyler.spec --define "_sourcedir ." --define
'_srcrpmdir .'  && mock -r fedora-rawhide-x86_64-rpmfusion_free
--rebuild ./dvdstyler-2.7.1-1.fc20.src.rpm  --no-clean 

Looking for mock configurations in /etc/mock/
we got many ppc and ppc64 configurations 

http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=fedora-20&arch=ppc

http://mirror.proserve.nl/fedora-secondary/releases/17/Fedora/
seems last one 

for rpmfusion we still use cvs you can download rpms spec and patch
with 
export CVSROOT=:ext:username at cvs.rpmfusion.org:/cvs/free
export CVS_RSH=ssh
export PLAGUE_CLIENT_CONFIG=~/.plague-client-rpmfusion.cfg 

cvs co ffmpeg

you need install plague-client (yum  install plague-client)

for fedora packages you may use fedpkg (yum  install fedpkg)
cd fedora-scm/ 
fedpkg clone xorg-x11-drv-synaptics (-a for anonymous) 
cd xorg-x11-drv-synaptics/

fedpkg mockbuild --root fedora-18-x86_64
or
fedpkg srpm ; mock -r fedora-20-x86_64 --rebuild azureus-5.3.0.0-2.fc21.src.rpm
