That's a lot of packages. On a default x86_64 install into Xen, I have 356 i386 packages installed. 356 is a lot of packages to send down the wire, unpack, layout on the file system, set selinux stuff, and do whatever pre/post processing necessary. Whats worse, a yum remove \*.i\?86 seems to want to take with it a fair number of x86_64 packages, which is not desired. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora
