Is ExclusiveArch appropriate for a noarch package?
We use ExcludeArch to avoid shipping firmware packages on arches where they don't make sense. For example, iwl3945-firmware has:
# This is so that the noarch packages don't appear for these archs ExcludeArch: ppc ppc64
The b43{,legacy} driver is available for ppc, ppc64, sparc64, alpha...you can get a Broadcom chipset into anything with PCI. Why should we limit where this package is available? With hardlinks it's not really any more burden to mirrors. (Great, now I need to go see if it actually works in any of those...)
