Yes, this help, only problem is that it lock state, so if you have full
64-bit system and lock every 32 bit packages, you have clean 64-bit
system, but if you lock all 32bit packages and have some 32-bit
packages, then this packages cannot be uninstalled and cannot be upgraded.

P.S.
lock for all 32 bit is really easy add this line to the end of locks
file (ensure, that this is at least one empty line after last line).
First line say that all iwhatever86 arch lock and second say, that you
in first line use glob pattern (you can also use regex and little change
first line.
solvable_arch: i*86
match_type: glob

if this doesn't work, then write and I look at it (this file structure
is implemented by me, so I know it)
