It is not about following the standards or not. Unlike distro RPMs, you
can install multiple PostgreSQL versions into the same box using
community RPMS. That caused a bit of breakage.

So, instead of using %{_libdir}, we install our libs and binaries
under /usr/pgsql-X.Y, (like 9.4, 9.3), and use lib/ and bin/
subdirectory under that one. So, we are are not multiarch compatible.

I am not sure if we can ship 32-bit libs with 64-bit packages or not,
though, to fix this issue.

May I ask you to subscribe pgsql-pkg-yum@PostgreSQL.org if you want to
discuss more?
