+<PRE>hi,
+
+I'm trying to make sense of libproxy packaging. It consists of a regular
+library and several modules. Currently, the library follows policy but the
+module packages are named libproxy-foo, so they have the same name on x86
+and x86-64:
+
+i586 x86-64 description
+==========================================================
+libproxy1 lib64proxy1 main library
+libproxy-gnome libproxy-gnome gnome proxy config support
+libproxy-webkit libproxy-webkit webkit pacrunner (?)
+etc.
+
+- modules are in /usr/lib(64)/libproxy/%{version}/modules/
+- libproxy-gnome also has a binary /usr/lib(64)/pxgconf (in 0.4.6 for
+ gnome2) or /usr/lib(64)/pxgsettings (in 0.4.7 for gnome3).
+
+This looks wrong because:
+- on a biarch system, it is not possible to have e.g. gnome3 settings
+ support for both archs
+- the helper app (?) pxgsettings is put in libexecdir by upstream, so
+ IMHO it should be in /usr/lib or /usr/libexec, not %{_libdir} which
+ %{_libexecdir} expands to.
+
+The specfile I have locally changes this to:
+
+i586 x86-64 change
+================================================================
+libproxy1 lib64proxy1 same
+libproxy-gnome lib64proxy-gnome biarch support
+libproxy-webkit lib64proxy-webkit biarch support
+libproxy-gxsettings libproxy-gxsettings new pkg
+etc.
+
+What should dependencies on these modules look like:
+Requires: %mklibname proxy-gnome ?
