[maemo-developers] rpm vs. deb and "universal binaries/packages"

[From: Christopher Intemann]

Since MeeGo is about to be released as well for the ARM as the Intel
platform, I really wonder whether either of the package formats (rpm/deb)
has the capability to include both binaries (ARM and Intel) but install only
the matching one automatically?
Of course, this would probably double the size of the rpm/deb, but would not
affect the size after install.
It would then be more transparent for the enduser to install additional
packages without having to think of their hardware architecture...
