This may sound naive, but while fat binaries would be important if our distribution mechanism were "one binary package file, works everywhere", do we actually expect to have users with a single /sw that will be used cross-platform? dan -- Daniel Macks [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.netspace.org/~d

[Fink-devel] First thoughts about "universal binaries"

Here are some first thoughts about how to use "universal" (aka "fat") binaries with fink. By default, we would assume that most packages will work with both architectures. A new flag would let a package specify that it is only suitable for a single architecture. Perhaps we will need to us
