Description Petr Hracek 2015-12-09 11:49:43 UTC
Description of problem:
Nowadays preupgrade-assistant has ARCH builds.
Because of preupgrade assistant has only python scripts I suggest to switch it to NOARCH builds.

There is no reason to have ARCH builds.

(In reply to Alois Mahdal from comment #1)

this can be done more easily by using `rqkit-anydiff`, new tool announced on qe-baseos-demons mtg and list:

    rqkit anydiff er/tps 21377 22151

or

    rqkit anydiff -r 3 er/tps 21377 22151

to hide gory details such as times and hostnames.

(still has same disadvantages as mentioned, but it's better than just looking at HTML)

Comment 5 Tereza Cerna 2016-03-31 13:19:26 UTC
Verified. Packages are noarch. Builds, spec file, rpmdiff and rqkit was checked and everything is OK.

Verified in:
preupgrade-assistant-2.1.5-4.el6
