The files need to be named the same but I had wanted to have the content variable dependent on arch.

So you can copy your file into place in ${worksrcpath}-${arch}  in pre-configure (although then you'll have to duplicate code to figure out which ${worksrcpath}-${arch} directories to use), and you'll need to remove any file in $worksrcpath that would conflict with the file (since copy runs 'file copy' without -force).

Thanks for the file/copy/merge tip Daniel.

I think I may be ok with a single LocalConfig file. I'm trying "set merger_configure_args(x86_64)" and I should be able to use configure_env($arch), if needed, to set some vars in LocalConfig.
