Packaging:ReviewGuidelines

Add the following lines:

  • SHOULD: The reviewer should check if the package as a whole or subpackages can be noarch.
  • SHOULD: Noarch packages and subpackages should contain the same content independent of the arch they have been build. The reviewer should use rpmdiff -t to check that.
