Hi Jeroen,
we have revisor on F-9 ignoring the requested arch and building the
spin based on the host arch only - is this a known issue? The
revisor-made spin we have doesn't work on i586 :-/
more details below...

Hi Martin,
Since your first mail, I've tried to reproduce this. I have no problems
producing installation media with both openssl.i386 and openssl.i686 in
the RPM payload (Packages/ directory) - with either respin mode or
without, which I was thinking may have been the issue. This however is
using a fresh git clone off of master, not the released version of
Revisor on Fedora 9.
Are you composing Live media by any chance? I can see how there is no
.i386 version of openssl installed.
Kind regards,
Jeroen van Meeuwen
