Package: packaging-manual Version: 3.1.0.0 Severity: wishlist Hello. The packaging-manual doesn't say what is the criteria used to select the architectures for a binary package. For example: I am (the no official yet) maintainer of the rhtvision library and setedit text editor. The rhtvision library was tested on i386 and alpha, then I set the architecture field to "alpha i386". Then Roman Hodek complained because there isn't anything preventing the library and the editor from working on other architectures. So, what should I do? I have changed the architecture field to "any" but I don't know if this is correct... In my opinion the packaging manual should talk about the rationale for the architecture field. Please, see bug 50319. Thanks and sorry for my poor english.
