Related to this. How does one go about removing 32bit libraries with rpm?
How do you selectively remove just i386 rpms? I couldn't find any option in "rpm --help" that selects just the rpms of a given architecture.
with rpm you can do:
rpm -e name.arch
with yum you can do the same:
yum remove name.arch
Yet another problem: On a system with dual x86_64 and i386 libraries many rpms are installed by default for both architectures, an example is mozilla, the default install of FC3 contains these:
mozilla-1.7.3-17.x86_64.rpm mozilla-chat-1.7.3-17.x86_64.rpm mozilla-devel-1.7.3-17.x86_64.rpm mozilla-dom-inspector-1.7.3-17.x86_64.rpm mozilla-js-debugger-1.7.3-17.x86_64.rpm mozilla-mail-1.7.3-17.x86_64.rpm mozilla-nspr-1.7.3-17.i386.rpm mozilla-nspr-1.7.3-17.x86_64.rpm mozilla-nspr-devel-1.7.3-17.x86_64.rpm mozilla-nss-1.7.3-17.i386.rpm mozilla-nss-1.7.3-17.x86_64.rpm mozilla-nss-devel-1.7.3-17.x86_64.rpm mozplugger-1.6.2-1.x86_64.rpm
Here mozilla-nspr and mozilla-nss are for both architectures - the problem is: If one builds updates for x86_64 how does one easily determine what packages that also must be created for i386?
I have problems creating the i386 packages anyway, for example:
# setarch i386 rpmbuild --target i386 --rebuild mozilla-1.7.5-3.src.rpm
Goes like this:

This "works" though:
# rpmbuild --target i386 --rebuild mozilla-1.7.5-3.src.rpm
However the resulting rpm is not okay at all:
# rpm -qpl mozilla-nspr-1.7.5-3.i386.rpm /usr/lib64/libnspr4.so /usr/lib64/libplc4.so /usr/lib64/libplds4.so
Life on the combined x86_64 / i386 architecture seems a bit confusing to me so far :-(
