Interestingly I branched all 4 failures. 3 of them built fine for 32-bit, so the build errors appear to be transient (or build server specific).

Good for you Greg! I was floored at the short-sightedness of the Leap team not building for i586. As mentioned on the opensuse list, I would expected the i586 kiss-off to come from the bleeding-edge distros long before opensuse abandoned 32-bit architecture. I guess the 32-bit users can migrate to the bleeding-edge for the next update as Arch is still packaging i686 on the 4.2 kernel (which stays current with kernel.org) If the broken 32-bit packages needing attention becomes to much to handle, shoot me an e-mail and I'll do what I can to breath life back into a few. It's ironic that this whole basis for this multi-year fangled ringed-build system was sold as something that would make the build process easier for the build team, so that more could be packaged, tested with fewer bugs and less manpower. This seems to have paid off in-spades as we are now cutting entire architectures because we don't have enough manpower to build it anymore. Ironic... Well hopefully through your effort, cooler heads will previal and the new build system will show its worth with the 'i586' directory is sitting side-by-side with the x86_64 dir, just as it always has, and just as it should for the next 5 years.. -- David C.
