But the better solution I was thinking of is to split colord
packaging
into two: one package with the shared library (colord-libs) and another
package with the daemon (colord). With a setup like this, only the
library subpackage would get multilibbed and the daemon package would
not. And then we could make the non-multilibbed daemon package obsolete
shared-color-profiles.
This makes sense to me, on the assumption we can somehow mark the
arch-specific daemon package as non-multilibbed. I must admit I'm not
sure on how all this stuff works.
As to how feasible this is, I guess that's a question to Richard.
Can
the 32 bit colord library talk to the 64 bit daemon?
Sure, it's just using D-Bus and the odd bit of fd-passing, so it
should work just fine. I can work on this tomorrow if you want, of if
you want to play, please just jump in a fix rawhide tonight for me.
Richard.
