The .noarch.rpm is an end-user RPM that is not architecture specific. I.e., it works on all platforms -- .i386.rpm, .x86_64.rpm, .ppc.rpm, etc... Typical .noarch.rpm packages are configuration, script and other files that do not have binaries, or are platform independent bytecode (e.g., p-code intepreted by another binary). -- Bryan J.
