I think it is acceptable to install arch specified *DATA* files in %{_datadir} too. Probably we can not find out a 100% perfect solution right now, but I think we could improve it in future. I still suggest resolving this problem in upstream. Let zinnia use non endian-specific data file. BTW, I think our major platfroms (i386 and x86_64) using the same endian. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
