> When we'll add support for subpackages - we'll have to make additional

> from one PKGBUILD.
> This depends on a way we implement subpackages and can be modified later.
>
> So far, pacman-git is able to install packages built with the modified makepkg,
> and shows "Architecture: all" on -Qi.
>
> I'll post patches for other scripts soon.
>
> How to test it:
> 1) get any font/cursor/etc PKGBUILD from AUR,
> 2) replace arch=('i686' 'x86_64') with arch='all'
> 3) use the patched makepkg to build the package
> 4) use pacman -U (git version, 3.0.x fails) to install the package
> 5) do pacman -Qi

OK, here is a patch for gensync and updatesync.
repo-add and repo-remove don't need any modifications.
