Hello

There is no attach here.

The script is here: http://the-brannons.com/isanypkg

[2] Should also check the machine (sufficient), because there are
packages for example AVR and ARM that from point of view of -any are
"architecture-independence". (some "crazy" :P packages have SPARC ELFs)
[3] And also (I din't see the script, so i just suppose), you also need
to exactarc archives files (.a) and analize the content of each object

Thanks so much for your insight!  Your guess was right; I forgot about
members of ar archives.

On second thought, I wonder if these sorts of checks should be done
within namcap?

They should. Two checks:
1) Is an arch=any package architecture-dependent -> error
2) Is an arch=whatever package architecture-independent -> warning

If you know python and have the time, you should write a patch against namcap.git and mail it to Hugo. I told him once that it's a good feature, no idea if he got to it. You can check namcap.git to see if he did something, and check the bugtracker if there is a feature request already.


Yay, I just looked at the script and it is in python already, so I guess a patch for namcap is in order :)
