I'm using the build-script from Novell, which works quiet well. (the one from the BuildService) I'm running it on a x86-64 SUSE Linux 10.1 box for the moment.

I have a directory setup of

/var | /buildrpms | | /SL-10.2 | | | x86_64 | | | i586 | | /SL-10.1 | | | x86_64 | | | i586 | | /SL-10.0 | | | x86_64 | | | i586

and I switch base distro using the --rpms parameter.

So basically, I would like to decide to build a package for 10.1 x86-64, I do:

build --rpms=/var/buildrpms/SL-10.1 --arch=x86_64 specfile.spec and if I decide for 10.1 i586, I do build --rpms=/var/buildrpms/SL-10.1 --arch=i586 specfile.spec

Doing so seems to correctly define the architecture of the installed rpms in the build root, but the resulting ELF binaries, in either of these calls, result in being 64bit applications.

Is my idea of the mainusage of the build script wrong or is it just my usage of it? Thanks for some help on this,

I guess it's solved if you start build with "linux32 build ..." If that's considered to be a hack or an official supported feature I don't know. It's also the way it's done within osc IMHO.

Wolfgang, Thanks for that trick/official hack or whatever.. as long as it helps... I'll try to integrate this this evening in my build script wrapped around and hopefully it works.. I'll let you know.
