I'm pretty sure we already discussed this in very much detail in the past at least once, and came to the conclusion that there are problems with that approach. What's different now? Sorry, but for the moment your mail is a bit big on fluffy ideas and a bit thin on details how it's going to work... as unsorted examples, * how is allarches supposed to interact with use.stable.mask? * who is doing allarches stabilizations? * what are the allowed dependencies? obviously an allarches package can only depend on other allarches packages... * what happens if an allarches package gets, e.g., masked on one arch? -- Andreas K.
