This is an off-shoot thought of the 32-bit ARM conversation. Right now, we
build stuff like libreoffice for i686, but then (mostly) don't ship it.
This seems like a waste of resources and time.
I know it's somewhat complicated (for example, there's actually a library
package in libreoffice, libreofficekit, so that gets plucked in to
multilib), and there's quite a lot to work out, but ... does this seem like
a good intended direction?
One immediate way to do this is to start adding `ExcludeArch: i686` to
"leaf" packages (I mean: to allow / encourage people to do that). But I
don't want to add _more_ cruft to the standard minimal spec file, so this
seems like the wrong direction.
ExcludeArch would be a very wrong place for this as it'll prevent others
from building the package on that arch for no good reason at all. The
rpm build restrictions are about buildability, not about distro content
control.
