Re: Please build 64 bit packages

Hi Maintainers,


now that the 64 bit version is in the wild, it would be incredibly cool
if you could all have a look into building your packages, which are not
yet available, for the 64 bit distro.

Alternatively, for those of your packages which are "noarch" packages,
for instance perl or python scripts, please drop usa note here along
the lines of "please copy package foo from 32 to 64 bit distro".

I don't know about python, but for perl scripts the dependencies will almost always be different for the 64-bit distro. For example, a dependency on perl_vendor will have to be replaced by dependencies on various perl-* packages.
