Re: [MiNT] Including multi-arch libs within RPM's

[Keith Scroggins <kws@radix.net>]

I think this is the way we need to go, at least right now.  Until someone 
has a better idea, anyone willing to put the extra effort into including 
the libs for 68020-60 and even Coldfire should just go ahead and do it. 
That way the libs start to trickle out, so, at least with Coldfire, when 
it becomes reality for more users, there is a good starting point for app 
development.

Last MiNTLib iteration, I included the Coldfire libs.  GCC carries the 
libs needed for Coldfire.  And most RPM's I have been rebuilding, when 
able, I try to add support for 68020-60 and Coldfire (development libs, 
not binaries so far).  Not all yet, because there are still issues every 
once and a while.
