Please guys, can you please refrain from adding those artificial

Excuse me but wth are you talking about ? what do you mean by
"artificial dependencies" ?

I call then "artificial" because they are not necessary to
run a 64bit installation



Not everybody want to have RealPlayer and Flash

installed, just like me that avoid them like the plague.

Then remove them, those are not mandatory.

I wonder how much space, bandwidth and time would be saved
by just moving that 32bit stuff to a separate repository.

sure, it will save bandwidth and space, but will not solve the
problem to be solved, it is much more complicated.


the problem here is that removing glibc-32bit and what follows
doesn't seem to be possible
