yum groupinfo "FTP Server" says that vsftp and "Base" ...

Base is the minimal install Recommended.

It wants to install all those i386 packages as requires for Base ... 

I would recommend that for a server you put a:

exclude=*.i386 *.i586 *.i686

in yum.conf and only install i386 packages if absolutely required by
your server.

(I would also see if I could remove other i386/i586/i686 packages.)
