Since the change to linux-gtk/Makefile affects a lot of ports, I object to a commit without appropriate testing. Feel free to team up with portmgr for a test run on the ports build cluster (amd64 and ideally ia32 too) for this change. If portmgr doesn't see obvious problems in the test run with a change from ARCH to LINUX_RPM_ARCH, I welcome the commit of this patch. > FYI, the following ports (which I maintain) are affected: > > emulators/linux-ePSXe > emulators/linux-peops-* > emulators/linux-pete-* > games/linux-x-plane > games/linux-x-plane-net-installer > x11-themes/linux-gtk-bluecurve-theme The only thing you just said is, that your ports don't comply to the current scheme and you know about it. All of those ports are some kind of leaf ports, while most of the ports which do the ARCH-dance ATM are infrastructure ports which are used by several leaf ports. The impact due to a bad change to the infrastructure ports is higher, than the impact of changes to your leaf ports. If portmgr doesn't has the time to do the test run on the cluster, I suggest you change your ports to comply to the current scheme. We can fix it properly (the quick fix is to commit this patch; a better solution would be to use bsd.linux-rpm.mk, especially since a new linux_base port without the use of the rpm command is upcomming) after the release then.
