I also believe that splitting might be a good idea. That said, do you (Jeff) mean that on a x86_64 system, the i386 multilib updates would be pulled from the i386 repo rather than from the x86_64 repo as it now does? I can see lots of benefits (less disk space on mirrors) but also a potential problem -- when updating a package for multiple architectures, you need to make sure that it builds on all architectures supported or none of the updated packages gets propagated to their respective repositories ... otherwise, things could get out-of-sync easily. -- Gene
