It isn't much use to get the users (who often wants to use the distro as a platform) into unnecessary trouble - at least as long as there isn't any real benefit of running Firefox in 64 bit mode... Of course the user could uninstall the i386 package and then install a i386 package - but that would make for: a) upgrade hell b) possible dep hell -> more upgrade hell Which would scare (new) users into thinking "Linux isn't userfriendly", choose not to learn it (scared of at early stage), tell others this, and choose non-Linux solutions over Linux ones - which may in turn be bad for future RH revenue. Just a though. It isn't like we are going to get a pure x86-64 system anyway. Kyrre
