This is then plan except that I prefer calling it "any" than "noarch" :) No need to change the package name for that. If you want the package name to reflect the real abi it will be from far too long :) The indication is in the the repository metadata, it is enough most of the = time, if we are on adding it to the package name what do you want to see in ? OS? majorversion? arch? 32/64bits? incompatible abi/extension? You will get the same problem that I'm trying to solve except that it will = gives you very very long package names. regards, Bapt --TD8GDToEDw0WLGOL Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.18 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAk9optoACgkQ8kTtMUmk6EzX7ACghUGKl8DRdH+UHrfQxlnHOh7w DfUAoIhvvdDVeu03UpjpNIdfdoAcaijr =i00R -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --TD8GDToEDw0WLGOL--
