I know you don't like the bin32/bin64 idea, but I think it's
the only
real way to "solve" having both binary flavors of a package installed at
the same time, if that needs to be solved.
I'm of the opinion that that doesn't need to be solved.
The lesser issue - more
easily solved - is that of libraries, where I think a general consensus
to split them out into -libs packages over time would do the trick.
Yep. The problem is that, as it stands now, this requires changes to yum
and the metadata to handle upgrades right.
