Some posters define "respin the isos" with "replace the packages with ones from updates and rerun anaconda bits on them", and others define it as "rebuild from src.rpms". For the latter you need arch comaptibility, e.g. i386 can be built on x86_64 (provided you setup sane chroots, use setarch etc.). But the former might not need any special arch considerations. E.g. createrepo, pkgroder and the like only look at rpm headers and hopefully shouldn't care about the actual contents and rpm colors. Is that true? E.g. can I build x86_64 and ppc isos on i386 (provided the packages are already available, e.g. no rebuilds). -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
