[Yum] Multiarch?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

I have recently aquired my first x86_64 machine onto which I have installed
RHEL 4 and yum. For the most part it is working fine but I am courious if
yum is behaving properly. 

If a package has both an i386 and x86_64 version yum is installing both of
them. For example:
(pocono pts16) # rpm -qa --qf '%{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}.rpm\n' cups-libs
cups-libs-1.1.22-0.rc1.9.6.i386.rpm
cups-libs-1.1.22-0.rc1.9.6.x86_64.rpm
(pocono pts16) #

There are a bunch of these. Is this correct behavior and if so why?

(pocono pts16) # rpm -q yum
yum-2.3.2-1.4.el4.mtd
(pocono pts16) #

Yum itself is unmodified. I only add some custom config files.
