  ==== noarch subpackages ====
  
  Rpm 5.x supports **noarch** subpackages, a feature that can save space on ftp server and mirrors and ease use of multiarch packages.
- To use it within a package all what is needed is to put
  
- <file>BuildArch: noarch</file>
+ To use it within a package you should add to subpackage:
+ 
+ <file>
+ # noarch subpackages only when building with rpm5
+ %if "%{_rpmversion}" >= "5"
+ BuildArch:  noarch
+ %endif
+ </file>
  
  in the preamble of a subpackage that should be/is architecture independent.
