for the record, mandriva is not allowing to install 2 pkgs with different arch. So any change on this subject won't hurt/help us :) To achieve biarch support Mandriva is not using rpm file coloring at all. We do: - library packages have different name on 64bits and 32bits (eg: libmagick1 and lib64magick1) - .mo, man pages and doc files are allowed to conflict - if there are other files, they are put in a separate package (eg: for /usr/bin/convert in imagemagick) this was easy to achieve based on existing libification which forces this setup already. urpmi ensures on upgrade that a 32bit pkg is upgraded in a 32bit pkg (resp 64bit) we also allows full biarch support for some devel pkgs (cf http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Policies/Multiarch) _______________________________________________ Rpm-maint mailing list Rpm-maint@lists.rpm.org https://lists.rpm.org/mailman/listinfo/rpm-maint
