So maybe

   "    The name `same` refers to the fact that the package can satisfy relations only for the same\n"
   "    architecture.  However, in this case, variants are co-installable as noted above.\n"

or

   "    The name `same` refers to the fact that the package can satisfy relations only for its own\n"
   "    architecture. However, in this case, variants are co-installable as noted above.\n"


It seems to be the exactly the same text on either side of that "or" (of the
different is very subtle). For now, I have chosen the top one, but I am
curious what the alternative was intended to be (or to be pointed out the
difference, because I do not see it)

Zoomed-in version:
  [...] can satisfy relations only for the same\n"
  [...] can satisfy relations only for its own\n"
(Oh, and a rogue whitespace change in the second line!)

I completely missed that difference.

I think I will go with "for its own" then to avoid using "same, same, same" all the time.

Best regards,
Niels
