It wasn't meant to be a red-herring though. Plenty of Linux
distributions have different architecture-specific package repos, and
arch is a common abbreviation for architecture. This only comes up if
you search for the full word e.g. "linux architecture repository"
since other wise Arch Linux dominates all the search results.
A bit of a tangent...
