Hi, I would to bring to your attention the current state of the x86_64 community repo. There are currently over 100 x86_64 packages out-of-date compared to the i686 ones (http://dev.archlinux.org/~andyrtr/pkg_diff.html) . Out of curiosity, how many TUs with a x86_64 machine are active? More precisely, are you checking the package diff list on a more or less daily basis to keep the two repo in sync? I have the impression that I was pretty much the only one doing that in the last few months. To help keeping the x86_64 repo in sync, I would recommend any TU without an x86_64 machine to ask Aaron for access on his x86_64 build machine. I'm not sure to what degree the packages can be tested on the build machine but several devs and TU are already using it. Nonetheless, if the build machine would be used, at the very least, for arch-independent packages (e.g. i18n, docs pkg), perl and python modules and non-critical packages (e.g. games, xfce-svn plugin, etc) that would reduce the workload for the x86_64 TUs. I don't mind helping out with the occasional x86_64 build or with problems/bugs only on x86_64. But would like to reduce that to a minimum as it's quite time-consuming.
