I'll take this as its a definite improvement over the current situation.
I did however wonder what happens if we try something tri-arch e.g.
i586, x86_64 and x32?

I get the feeling both package backends could really use some cleanup
now we have the basics working and better abstraction of the code so we
can loop over something like tri-arch (or more) easily...

Cheers,
