I think this is unnecessary, x64
is a common alias for x86-64
and nothing else. See e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86-64
x86_64
is more commonly used across Linux distro (ref: uname -m
). IMHO by adhering to that convention, it would help ease the effort of package maintainer in writing installation scripts to pick up right artefacts.
To denote that the binaries are for Linux x86_64. Because there are many 64bit architectures for Linux right now, personally I find
x64
can be confusing.
