Description vfiend 2009-03-27 03:44:29 CET

I originally filed bug 460 about this against gens. At a glance at the repository listing it also applies to dega-sdl, and possibly more.

I assume Gens and other packages can't be compiled 64 bit native, so aren't in the x86_64 repository. However, the i386 rpm should be in the 64 bit repository so users can install and use it easily, as the official fedora repositories provide i386 packages for compatibility purposes as well.

Closing this for the reasons given in Bug 460 Comment 4.

Unnamed reporter: That's not your fault ;-) But it would be helpful if you you open a bug for each package where you think it would make sense to multilib (e.g. "dega-sdl, and possibly more"); please CC me in the bug, tia!
