The URL thing is less of a concern than the fedora-release package and the gpg key. We're going to have to change the way fedora-release puts gpg keys on the file system to accommodate secondary arches. For the URL, we'll likely need a redirect for the secondary arch folders, but the problem there is that we don't directly control the http servers that run for download.fedora.redhat.com. So there is discussion about changing the baseurl= entry in the yum repo files to instead make use of mirrormanager, which has some disadvantages in putting all our eggs into mirrormanager, and if it goes down, there is no pre-listed baseurl to fall back to. We're going to hash out some of these things at FUDCon. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature!
