[CMake] cpack 32bit rpm on a 64bit system

[Yngve Inntjore Levinsen]

Dear Eric,

I have tried again a few times without success, and tried with the version 2.8.4 that you provided.

Since this didn't succeed I figured I should test with a helloworld binary and see how that goes. Of course it works just fine, even with the 2.6 series installed on the server. The CMakeLists.txt is below for those interested.

I will send a new e-mail if I figure out that there is some issues with the packaging, but for now we close the case. I'd say it is about 99% sure I am doing something wrong ;)

By the way, in this script I did not specify i686 or x86_64, will it then default to the latter or does it check the binary format to some extent?

Thanks for your efforts!

Cheers,
Yngve
