places systemtap tapsets in arch-specific location

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #673452 +++

I cloned #673452 because I couldn't reopen it.  This is a regression from F14, and the attached patch fixes the one conflict (systemtap files).  This bug makes it impossible (fine, prohibitively hard :) to compile 32-bit software that links against glib2.  See below for more info.  Thanks!

yours,
Bobby

I'm still seeing this myself:

fix for tip of f15/master glib2 git branch

The above patch allows me to install both i686 and x86_64 devel packages, tested locally with a mock build.

--- Additional comment from mclasen on 2011-04-14 17:12:31 EDT ---

-devel packages are not supposed to be parallel installable. multilib only means that library packages are parallel installable.

--- Additional comment from bobby on 2011-04-14 18:12:13 EDT ---

Matthias:

this is absolutely a bug.  -devel packages install symlinks required for linking, like:
/usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so

Without this you must specify the exact library path when linking 32-bit libraries (meaning you can't use pkgconfig).

Also, this is a regression.  glib2-devel was parallel installable on f14.

Please either repon or apply my patch.  I am glad to rework it if you have specific comments on it.

yours,
Bobby

I reopened 673452 for you, Bobby.  I'm not sure why I'm allowed to reopen, but not you.  But I assume you prefer to continue the case in the original report rather than split some of it to this clone.
