I agree. Consider RHEL/CentOS where you can simultanneously install both .i686
and .x86_64 versions of one package. The packages are allowed to have
overlapping files, if these files don't differ.
If one puts script libraries to $libdir/<subdir>, CentOS will have duplicate files in
/lib/<subdir> and /lib64/<subdir>, but in case of $datadir there will be only one
/usr/share/<subpackage>
Right, but this is only applicable if all files are arch-independent and
guaranteed to stay so for ever.
