Yes, it should. I think that's already part of Spot's proposal. I've effectively been doing that job for PowerPC for a while already¹. Which is why I know that half the 'suddenly failed to build' bugs are actually generic problems which the package owner should care about, and not really arch-specific at all. And that's just the ones which got as far as an ExcludeArch -- the trivial ones which the maintainer fixed for herself aren't included, and I suspect those are even _more_ likely to be generic bugs rather than arch-specific. -- dwmw2 ¹ although the recent restriction on commit access to Fedora packages has been _very_ unhelpful. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
