Should I file a bug report? I am not sure. According to rpm's sources, the ia32e is a member of the x86_64 family. So, this setting could be intentional. However, I don't know what and why it has been set to this value on your system. > What's the purpose of > the /etc/rpm/platform anyway? It's internally used by rpm to override a machine's "platform". E.g. setting it to "i586-redhat-linux" causes rpm to ignore all "*.i686.rpm"s.
