Fedora 3, yum-2.1.11-3 rpm-4.3.2-21 A few of them, but I'll do a complete example here: [root@moya tmp]# yum list xorg-x11-deprecated-libs ... Installed Packages xorg-x11-deprecated-libs.x86_64 6.8.1-12.FC3.21 installed Available Packages xorg-x11-deprecated-libs.i386 6.8.1-12.FC3.21 updates3 [root@moya tmp]# yum install xorg-x11-deprecated-libs.i386 ... Nothing to do (so I'll try with RPM:) [root@moya tmp]# rpm -Uhv /nexus/heap/software/yum/updates/3_64/RPMS/xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-0-6.8.1-12.FC3.21.i386.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:xorg-x11-deprecated-lib########################################### [100%] (and then all is well) [root@moya tmp]# yum list xorg-x11-deprecated-libs ...
