Thank you Mark , that makes it clear.

Guess i did investigate good enough on the ARM versions.


The arch index is a good idea, somtehing similair is also what i saw 
inthe Google explanation on multiple APK's to have a version nr where 
the position of the nr identifies what version and for what architecture 
it is, like also commonly is used with serial nr's from tv's for 
example.

I will create a feature request.

Thanks very much.

Best regards,

Jerry
