Isn't this codified though, rather than through a package list containing fully qualified packages with arches? IMO it'd be best in the longer term if the only thing Anaconda needed to have were a list of packages with arches rather than assuming any such logic. I see why it's not that easy today, but if it didn't need to handle ordering of install for multilib implementation, then I think it could be a lot simpler.
