Public bug reported:

Please enable libdrm-intel for ports architectures.  It's a build-
dependency of plymouth, so contributes to a plymouth FTBFS.  Fedora
makes available libdrm-2.4.6-6.fc11.ppc.rpm, demonstrating that this
wouldn't be a change unique to Ubuntu.

While it is unlikely that anyone has hardware with
sparc/powerpc/armel/ia64 processors and the necessary graphics drivers
to require this package, the package builds successfully and may even
work.  If anyone happens to have the hardware necessary to report a bug,
then it demonstrates that the package should have been built.  If nobody
has the hardware, then it doesn't matter if it works.

I believe this to be a less-invasive solution than attempting to
special-case plymouth's code to conditionally build the intel bits only
for linux-i386, linux-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, and kfreebsd-amd64.
