Well it seems like hp has modified their rpmrc b/c rpm in rhel3 has no
knowledge of that arch.

which makes this all extremely painful.

Might want to ask them where the it came from b/c making up new arches
is kinda a no-no.

about the amd64 arch:
what does the machine report as?
run this command:
python -c "import rpmUtils.arch; print rpmUtils.arch.getBaseArch()"

and run:
cat /etc/rpm/platform

if it isn't reporting as 'amd64' then it is not compatible with amd64
packages.

ia32e is intel's x86_64
amd64 is amd's x86_64
they are both supersets of x86_64 iirc and you can't use ia32e packages
on just any-old x86_64 and not on amd64.

fun, huh?
