That won't make available i386 Python in Core on x86_64. But if you wanted to make k3d-devel multi-compatible, you could split the huge k3d package into a k3d-sdk (or k3d-libs) package and a main application package. Then k3d-devel could depend on just k3d-sdk and would no longer require Python. $ rpm -qf $(which k3d-config) k3d-devel-0.6.3.1-1.fc6 $ k3d-config --libs -L/usr/lib -lk3dsdk -lsigc-2.0 -L/usr/lib -lGL -lpthread -L/usr/lib -lGLU $ ldd /usr/lib/libk3d*.so.0|grep pyt $ A similar approach might suffice with other four packages listed above. -- Fedora-maintainers mailing list Fedora-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers -- Fedora-maintainers-readonly mailing list Fedora-maintainers-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers-readonly
