I have seemed to come across a bit of an annoyance when trying to install new packages. If I do not specific exactly the arch I want it will attempt to install both i386 and x86_64 versions instead of just the x86_64 version. I definitely don't have exact arch defined but that shouldn't matter really. It should only be installing i386 versions of packages when I ask for them specifically or they are a requirement for a package I am installing. -- Mark Lane, CET -- mailto:mark@xxxxxxxxxxxx Sales Manager -- Hard Data Ltd -- http://www.harddata.com T: 01-780-456-9771 -- F: 01-780-456-9772 11060 - 166 Avenue Edmonton, AB, Canada, T5X 1Y3 --> Ask me about our New Dual and 4 Way Blade Servers <--
