I think a noarch like list would make sence. This so when arch is not i?86
it will look for it in packages-noarch.list and the $ARCH/packages.list.
Its also so we don't have to rename the noarch packages (ex.
cookutils-2.0-noarch.tazpkg) and just a have a option only out put a list.
Thi s should keep it simple for me to add to my code later on.
