#6685 Review Changes/TrueNoarchErlangPackages, likely with no releng effort required
Closed: Fixed 7 years ago Opened 7 years ago by bowlofeggs.

Hello!

I'm filing a change to allow noarch Erlang packages to exist and be installed to %{_datadir}/erlang/lib instead of %{_libdir}/erlang/lib as they do today. Pure Erlang packages are truly noarch, but currently the Erlang VM only has one search path for dependencies so they all get installed to %{_libdir} today. The change is to allow Erlang packages that don't have archful code to install their packages to %{_datadir}.

I don't believe this change will require any effort from Release Engineering, as we won't need to do a mass rebuild (unless someone just wants to). Any packages that install to %{_libdir} that are noarch will continue to work after this change as they do before.

You can read more about this change here:

none of these would eb multilibbed, nor do i believe does any of the erlang packages land in places that would affect the compose process. I believe this is fine and has zero releng impact
