           Summary: yum installs i586 packages on x86_64 which easily
                    results in serious breakage
           Product: openSUSE 10.3
           Version: Final
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Other
        AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: janneke-list@xxxxxxxxx
         QAContact: qa@xxxxxxx
          Found By: Other


The default installation of yum has in /etc/yum.conf:

    exactarchlist=kernel-bigsmp, kernel-debug, kernel-default,
kernel-dummy,kernel-iseries64, kernel-ppc64, kernel-s390, kernel-smp,
kernel-syms, kernel-um, kernel-xen, kernel-xenpae, glibc

which makes that I got:



    root@peder:~# yum install xorg-x11

    Remove       0 Package(s)         

    Total download size: 2.1 M
    Is this ok [y/N]: y

which results in, for example:

    root@peder:~# ldd `which gdm`|grep found
            libXdmcp.so.6 => not found

not good.

It can be fixed my commenting-out the exactarchlist entry, or possibly
by including something like:

    exclude=*.i386* *.i586* *.i686*

$ yum --version
3.2.4
