Before we do that, I think we need to consider a bit of reorganization. As in any binary distribution, there are many "noarch" packages which could be used for both i686 and x86_64. Providing two identical copies is just a waste of storage and bandwidth for sourceware, mirrors, and users. Instead, I think it would make sense to make three sibling trees, one for i686 (the current release/ directory), one for x86_64, and one for noarch packages. Then, there would be two scans by upset: setup.ini from i686 and noarch, and setup64.ini from x86_64 and noarch. Thoughts? Yaakov
