Absolutely not. An end user's multilib capable machine + OS should install the multilib software by default. An end user shouldn't have to figure out how to add it after the fact.

can yum search for foo and if it finds foo-N-N.x86_64.rpm it downloads it. If not it will download the 32 bit version. However if it finds foo-N-N.x86_64.rpm it should not download the 32 bit version (to prevent conflict). "It should Just Work(tm) for the user" well my 3 sources have the same problem, and yum update fails each time. It is not just working for the user. chitlesh -- http://clunixchit.blogspot.com -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
