Yes, i work on this issue. I use this packages for my company and we know there is a lot work to improve it. Our need is to have a running inventory agent for all our OS, i mean Linux, Windows, Aix, Solaris, ... We are actualy working on the new "OCS Inventory NG Unix Unified Agent", fully written in perl, which should/must works on all arch. http://www.ocsinventory-ng.org/index.php?page=beta-test We are aleady using it on RHEL 2-4, Fedora 3-6, AIX 5.x, Solaris 9. Working on this new agent, i have split, from ocsinventory-agent (which will become obsolete), a sub-package ocsinventory-ipdiscover (which is still needed). That's why ocsinventory became "noarch". I waiting for the "beta" test before posting a review for this new agent, but it's already available for testing : http://remi.collet.free.fr/index.php?2007/04/11/340-ocs-inventory-ng-unix-unified-agent > Just disabling an architecture is the packagemonkey approach.
