Description Alexander Kurtakov 2012-02-14 15:31:21 UTC 
Currently icu4j is an arch package because of the icu4j-eclipse package installing into _libdir/eclipse and rpm not supporting arch subpackages for noarch main packages.
icu4j and icu4j-eclipse should become noarch packages where icu4j-eclipse should install it's current content into e.g. _datadir/icu4j-eclipse and get the contents properly used and symlinked from eclipse-build. This will have 2 positive effects:
* remove the need for bootstrap builds in secondary archs because they reuse the noarch packages from primary archs directly
* simplify eclipse.spec as icu4j won't need to be special cased and created symlinks won't need to be deleted manually in the spec.
Comment 1 Alexander Kurtakov 2012-02-14 15:31:54 UTC 
Chris, 
Please take care of this one.
Comment 2 Andrew Overholt 2012-02-14 19:37:50 UTC 
Great idea!
Comment 3 Stanislav Ochotnicky 2012-02-15 11:14:07 UTC 
I'd just like to note that if there are arch-specific files in icu4j-eclipse content (i.e. stuff that's gonna be different on i386 and amd64 for example) then there will be multiarch problems. And it would be against guidelines/FHS
Comment 4 Alexander Kurtakov 2012-02-15 11:19:55 UTC 
icu4j don't even has an idea what an arch specific file might be :). The fact that the package is arch specific is because of old historical packaging problems which we are close to remove.
