Well getting rid of /usr/lib64 and multilib would be another
worthwhile long-term goal.  Debian have used a more sensible scheme:

  https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch

For entertainment:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=235752


I would go through the Debian bug system to find all the issues they have with their multiarch scheme and certain software. Both 'solutions' cause issues at time and headaches for packagers to sysadmins to users. Now whether or not one set of headaches/problems is less painful I don't know..  [I only know this because the one thing my Debian friends ever tell me that Red Hat got right was with multilib versus multiarch ... of course they could just be throwing me a bone.]
