for i686 every dev has personal staging dirs at gerolde. x86_64 uses only on common. that should be changed. uploading all to one may break the db if a dev wants to hold some of his packages back until he has uploaded all of one set.

in general every dev should have access + personal staging directories to both official supported architectures. x86_64 devs could easily build for i686 in a chroot.

can we change this quickly and adopt the devtools pkg?

I think it's a reasonable request. There's no history of x86_64 devs screwing up anything for i686, which was our main concern at the beginning.

Aaron, can you handle this?

Yeah, I can do that - writing it down to do tonight (~6 hours from now, perhaps)

Done, eric updated devtools, so all you x86_64 guys need to login to gerolde, and create: ~/staging/arch64/ ~/staging/extra64/ ~/staging/unstable64/ ~/staging/testing64/ And voila! In the future, when we move over to the -ARCh suffixed packages, the '64' on those dirs won't be needed anymore.
