The repo compose tool pulls in compatible -devel packages, their dependencies and run-time libs it detects: https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/mash/plain/mash/multilib.py The DevelMultilibMethod at the bottom is what's enabled in the config. Conflicts between the two -devel packages for different archs ought to be fixed like other packaging bugs. That hasn't been found extremely important for early Fedora releases, but later we've worked with tracker bugs, such as 'multilibdevel': packages with multilib -devel conflicts https://bugzilla.redhat.com/192658 There are tons of tickets about such conflicts. -- Michael Schwendt Fedora release 19 (Schrödinger’s Cat) - Linux 3.9.5-301.fc19.x86_64 loadavg: 0.06 0.16 0.21 -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
