Isn't the norach equivalent of _libdir _datadir? Or phrased in another way: Shouldn't a noach package avoid both lib and lib64? I think we even have rules already set for this. I don't quite agree that rpm should start changing _libdir to point to _datadir, but the packagers should probably patch up the packages to use _datadir instead of _libdir if the package is indeed noarch. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
