Fedora Core 5's multi-lib environment was geared toward running 32bit apps, and only a small number of packages were setup to be multi-lib. In FC6, we're also targetting app development, and as such made some changes to rpm and to our tree building software so that any package that has a -devel subpackage will be considered multi-lib and brought into the tree. If you wish to test this out, please try Fedora Core 6 Test 2.
HI Jesse, this is great news! Thanks for the info. I will be looking forward to FC6 :) -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
