As I posted on the packaging ML[1] the new RPM 4.7.1 in Factory allows us to create a noarch subpackages. We might save significant space on BiArch DVDs and mirrors if we mark all the *-doc, *-devel-doc, *-branding-* and similar subpackages that are arch because of the main package. I don't have even a rough estimate, but I can hack a script that will check the filelists of the subpackages if they could be marked as noarch. What do you think?

I think this would be great to have. So please do.
Thanks,
