One repository supports 3 different main architectures of CPU's and YaST
download all of them - why? If user has one CPU's arch he or she do not need 2
others. Maybe repositories should be divided into 3 directories, so “YaST
Software Management” would start almost 3 times faster! Or Maybe YaST just
could "know what is good for him and what bad"?  ;)


I know that 64 bit CPU's can handle 32 bits applications, but no vice versa and
especially Power PC do not need 32 and 64 CPUs
