Could `--arch=foo` be modified to mean "strictly foo, without all"?
Alternatively could a new option like `--arch-strict=foo` be
introduced, if you believe that the old behavior should not change?
I don't think changing the semantics for --arch would be correct, as
this is how it has been documented, and how people have relied on this
option working. Instead I've added a new --no-implicit-arch option,
which removes the implicit addition of the arch-all packages, so then
you can run twice with --arch=foo and then --arch=all for example.
Thanks!
If I am allowed to bikeshed a bit, as a user I'd find
--no-implicit-arch-all
or
--no-implicit-archs
more explicit and easier to spot when looking for that kind of change of
semantics. (Inner dialogue: "no implicit arch? which arch is implicit?".)
