Hi all,

how does yum handle multiple architectures ???

I create my own local repository over the (for example) RH72 updates

I run yum-arch over this part of the directory tree :

redhat.updates-7.2/en/os/SRPMS
                        /i386  
                        /i686  
                        /images  
                        /noarch  
                        /s390

I know yum handles i368, i686 and noarch in yum-arch  but how about s390 
...

I want yum on s390 too, does yum-arch handle it ? 
what if I add alpha and ppc trees too ??

Can "yum update" take the right architecture from a shared repository ?

tnx, 

Eddie
