IMHO, it should. Desired behaviour: o yum install foo for all arch in archs: if foo.arch already installed, upgrade foo.arch if foo.bestarch not installed: Install foo.bestarch I.e. default to only native packages, but upgrade compatibility packages is such had been installed. o yum remove foo Unconditionally remove all foo.arch (like it is now) In order to remove only for a specific arch, use yum remove foo.arch. In order to install for all archs use yum --comparchtoo install foo. comparchtoo could be a switch in yum.config. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
