Also i believe (this part is specifically for raspberry pi) that the fedora arm port has taken soft-float approach for floating point operation. Will this affect using spicy/virt-viewer functionality in f18 arm port for raspberry pi?

I don't know exactly where the arm repository is, but it is available :)

The people in #fedora-arm on the freenode irc server should be able
to help you further.

Or will it require backporting ? Can i compile libraries and dependencies for the package on fedora17 ? Any inputs are welcome.
