Do we need hosts with different architectures for running depcheck? Let's imagine we have these packages proposed as updates: foo-1.2-3.fc13 |-----foo-1.2-3.i686.rpm |-----foo-1.2-3.x86_64.rpm |-----foo-data-1.2-3.noarch.rpm bar-4.5-6.fc13 |-----bar-4.5-6.fc13.noarch.rpm How do I test those packages? Should I get two machines and test i686 rpm files on i686 hardware, x86_64 rpm files on x86_64 hardware, and noarch rpm files on any hardware? Or should I test the whole set of RPMs twice, once on each hardware arch? 2. I have imagined a situation where two updates are accepted into the -pending tag in quick succession. Thus we can end up with two depcheck tests running simultaneously. And the one that was started earlier can finish up later. It could then report incorrect result. Do you have an idea what we can we do about that? Maybe we can somehow write down the state of the -pending tag in the time of starting the test, and if it is different from when the test is finished, we can just throw away the results? Just a wild idea.
