37 Nice. Well, eix is really fast for this... but I need to see how to make
38 it think I have a ppc setup ;)
39
40 I guess we will need to wait for the next Council to officially decide
41 to do this as it will be a big change for ppc* users :/ (I remember
42 their action was needed for the move to testing of some arches and the
43 "package-by-package" proposal for others)
44
45 Also, I am not sure if any other arch teams (sparc, ia64?) would want to
46 get this policy too :| (I got ppc* because this concrete case ;))
