If the code is portable, then you must use `BuildArch: noarch`. It must build on all platforms that Fedora currently supports. You only use ExclusiveArch etc if the software does not support the whole set: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures And then tracker bugs must be filed to clarify this: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_architecture_support > > > another question - do I need to explicitly add zlib as as Requires if octave > already contains this dependency? > > thanks It is better to add it here explicitly---we should not rely on another package pulling it into the transaction. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
