All of my packages, against which complaints have been BZ'ed, all are
*-devel packages which suffer from
- Conflicts in /usr/bin/* devel tools (typical *-config scripts)
- Conflicts in %doc files below /usr/share (90% of them steming from
doxygen generated docs and __man pages__)
I.e. these packages run-time packages are installable in parallel, but
their *-devel packages conflicts.
So, as it seems to me, the "multiarch" campaign of is aiming at
parallel installation of the *devel packages.
This is a second problem space, but doesn't change the fact that one
can avoid having the "application" be multilib if all the libs are
split out of it.
