I'm curious how the upgrade should be performed for the biarch

64bit support is still highly experimental and I don't have such a machine.
adrian is the guru and he's offline now, could you hold your breath? ;-)

The glibc stuff appears to be correct. Is there a reason why the
architecture for those packages are now 'ppc'? All the powerpc64
packages appear to be upgraded to the powerpc counterpart.

uhmm... ppc? good question :-)

my idea is trying to stick with
http://workaround.ch:81/kakiwaki?P='64bit' as much as possible, I'd
say to switch to a 32bit system, upgrade it and then 64bit-ized it.

main problem with upgradepkg is that it would remove needed packages
(I think we should rename the 64bit ones).
