I guessed at the fact that one is an x86_64 version and the other is

to provide this information, and it is not returned by --info.
rpm -q --qf '%{name}.%{arch}\n' samba-common
Would be nice to have a standard extended format for -q, eg
rpm -qa --qf '%{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\n'
rpm has popt support built in (and deeply intertwined). You could easily
create a popt option to do exactly that. Or you could go the shell route
and create an alias or function that does what you need.
If you write the popt alias, be sure you share it with the list. ;-)
