Hi!

Many years ago I did a lot of the work to make eFa4 work on ARM, and I'm now upgrading from 8.x to 9.x, and with eFa5, there seems to be a few missing aarch64 packages.

Problem: conflicting requests
  - package dcc-2.3.168-1.eFa.el9.x86_64 from eFa5-release does not have a compatible architecture
Problem: cannot install the best candidate for the job
  - nothing provides dcc >= 2.3.168-1 needed by eFa-5.0.0-8.eFa.el9.noarch from eFa5-release
  - nothing provides perl-DateTime >= 2:1.54-4 needed by eFa-5.0.0-8.eFa.el9.noarch from eFa5-release
  - nothing provides perl-IO-String >= 1.08-43 needed by eFa-5.0.0-8.eFa.el9.noarch from eFa5-release
  - nothing provides perl-IO-stringy >= 2.113-7 needed by eFa-5.0.0-8.eFa.el9.noarch from eFa5-release
  - nothing provides perl-Net-LibIDN >= 0.12-1 needed by eFa-5.0.0-8.eFa.el9.noarch from eFa5-release
  - nothing provides perl-Switch >= 2.17-23 needed by eFa-5.0.0-8.eFa.el9.noarch from eFa5-release
  - nothing provides postfix >= 2:3.5.23-1 needed by eFa-5.0.0-8.eFa.el9.noarch from eFa5-release
  - nothing provides spamassassin >= 4.0.1-2 needed by eFa-5.0.0-8.eFa.el9.noarch from eFa5-release
  - nothing provides tnef >= 1.4.18-1 needed by eFa-5.0.0-8.eFa.el9.noarch from eFa5-release
  - nothing provides unrar >= 6.2.5-1 needed by eFa-5.0.0-8.eFa.el9.noarch from eFa5-release

Would it be possible to add the arm packages, or let me know how to contribute to add them?

For anyone attempting to build this, most SPEC files build without issue on RHEL 9, but a few have dependencies which can all be found in CentOS 9 Stream (which should be upstream from RHEL 9)

When it came to the perl dependencies, I gave up downloading them manually and added the CentOS 9 Stream repos to RHEL 9 😐. There are about 50 of those.
