Overview
Request 503743 accepted
I'd like to submit eccodes to the science project. EcCodes is a popular GRIB handling package from ECMWF (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts). Its library is used in other packages such as cdo to deal with the GRIB data format.
Third version which disables build on 32bit archs due to build issues (rpmlint errors).

not sure if we want to have a package in science which disable all build checks :/
Would it be an option to remove the BuildIgnore statement and let 32bit archs be broken? Most archs are 64bit anyway, nowadays. The errors are manifold and I fear I can't fix them myself.
Yes, you could add an "ExcludeArch: %ix86" line, so the package turns to excluded state there. And add a comment above about the problem.

Added you as maintainer. This will still need some work (shlib-policy-missing-suffix warning) for inclusion into Factory.

Thanks a lot! Is it desirable to strive for inclusion in Factory? Is there some policy/guideline which packages should be forwarded?
shlib-policy-missing-suffix warning: Yes I know, but I figured that as long as ECMWF does not do so-versioning there is no point in splitting the package. There is some support request at ECMWF for having so-versioning, but first reactions were dismissive.
