Hi,

There is still a problem with packages built with "--target athlon". 
 urpmi doesn't show them as being installed although they are.

Here is the output of "urpmi libjs" (I rebuilt mozilla with --target 
athlon):

[root@buttercup linux]# urpmi libjs

file from package libjs-1.1-8mdk

I saw somebody else post this same problem a week or so ago, so I know 
it isn't just me.  I also rebuilt packages with "--target i686" and they 
installed fine and are shown as installed to urpmi.

This has been a problem ever since the new rpmdrake came out, so it has 
been a while.


Specifying urpmi /path/to/rpm/*.athlon.rpm shows that it is installed as 
well even if it isn't installed.  Not sure what that is.  Here is an 
example of trying to install an *.athlon.rpm that isn't installed:

[root@buttercup athlon]# urpmi 
/usr/src/RPM/RPMS/athlon/libdvdcss2-1.2.2-1.athlon.rpm
everything already installed


Specifying rpm -Uvh *.athlon.rpm to a package that isn't installed 
results in:

[root@buttercup athlon]# rpm -Uvh 
/usr/src/RPM/RPMS/athlon/libdvdcss2-1.2.2-1.athlon.rpm
Preparing...                ########################################### 
[100%]
   1:libdvdcss2             ########################################### 
[100%]

Running this again results in:

[root@buttercup athlon]# rpm -Uvh 
/usr/src/RPM/RPMS/athlon/libdvdcss2-1.2.2-1.athlon.rpm
Preparing...                ########################################### 
[100%]
package libdvdcss2-1.2.2-1 is already installed

I did a tail /var/log/syslog and there were no messages to report.

Thanks,
Ken
