With the addition of noarch support in bloom (ros-infrastructure/bloom#270), I found a couple of packages that incorrectly marked architecture_independent when they were, in fact, not so. These packages were notified and the appropriate package.xmls updated.

I'd like to collect thoughts on whether packages should be notified if they SHOULD mark architecture_independent but are currently not.

My experimental buildfarm (http://csc.mcs.sdsmt.edu/jenkins/) has the capability to check this, so I could compile a list of packages that are so.

I know the current debian buildfarm is unable to leverage this tag, but this would be a great first step in adding it, and my buildfarm can do so.

Looking for thoughts.

Thanks!

Since the exported tag was not used anywhere until now nobody cared to actually add the tags where appropriate. I think it is perfectly reasonable to fill tickets / PR against packages which should have that tag.

Okay, I'll keep looking into this, then. I'm not sure I have the manpower to open all of the tickets that will be necessary, but I might be able to send some automated E-mails. I'll keep this thread updated.

For similar future tickets please open them under ros/rosdistro. We usually track distro wide tickets there.
