That's the only layout that would make sense I think (i386 holding the 'master' copy) right now. But how long before amd64 takes over? :-) I don't mind the extra "work" but given the relatively small size and the dynamics of multiple people doing the builds my guess is we'd have fewer mistakes made if we shoot for the consistency being separate files for the individual architectures. But I don't feel strongly enough about it that I can't be convinced I'm wrong. :-) > and while we're at it.. there were a few other questions > about some other directories... If that's a reference to the previous message I'll see what I can come up with. I knew a few of the answers but not all. :-( -- Ken Smith - From there to here, from here to | kensmith@cse.buffalo.edu there, funny things are everywhere. | - Theodore Geisel |
