Why ZYpp doesn't allows to install both i586 and x86-64 versions of a

Where Smart says:

Well, smart is simply wrong here. SuSE uses -32bit packages to
implement mixed architecture, whereas RedHat installs both i586
and x86_64. Please check the complains on the RedHat/Fedora lists
to see why we're doing it different. ;-)

Please create a "freealut-32bit" package. It's just adding
a "baselibs.conf" file with a single line "freealut" to the
package sources.

Cheers,
Michael.
