<snip> Would be nice. Trouble is, we've got what, 60? 70? people in the division
With that many you obviously have a local mirror that they all update from, right? cd pathtomirror/5/updates/x86_64/RPMS find ../../i386 -name thunderbird* -exec ln -s {} ; cd .. createrepo -v --update -d -o repodata x86_64
And get your boss happy with _that_ .... but only if the 32bit version worked.
who have Linux workstations, and then rolling it all out, and no one wants to deal with 32-bit apps on 64 bit systems (we won't mention npviewer<segv><segv<segv>)....
Lightening and lightening-exchange looked really good....
Any chance you could get the source of those and recompile for 64? Yeh Yeh, maintenance headache, but can that set of headaches (work [and more at each update of the tool] and IA) be balanced against the alternatives and be a win for the division.
