If you do:
yum install PKG # want x86_64 version
sometimes you will get the file conflict error because the existing
PKG.i586 is not at the same version as what is in the repository for
PKG.x86_64. So I think yum should see that and schedule an update for
PKG.i586 and then the file check would succeed. Right now you have to deal
with this manually.
Here's an example:
# yum list fontconfig popt-devel postfix gdm

maybe I'm reading something incorrectly but it sure looks like all the
versions are the same. And if the versions are the same then the problem
is in the packages, not in yum.
