"Multiarch" does not necessarily mean every possible thing both in 64 and 32 bit variants. But if you have such ambitions then add to your repo definitions 'fedora32' and 'updates32' which will look in principle like what you have already but instead of "arch=$basearch" they will have an explicit "arch=i386". > Is there a correct way to install all i686 libs for which I have x86_64 > ? Something like yum --multiarch=i686 install-libs. See above but do not be surprised if you will bump into file conflict on occassions. > There must be a proper way to make a box multi-arch - it was not an > option during install as far as I could tell. Your box is already multiarch, unless you mean something else under this name, but if you will install 32-bit compilers, for example, then they better will not be in the same $PATH as "native" stuff. You may fare better with a virtual 32-bit (sub)installation if you have such plans.
