You could run things like 'yum remove > e2fsprogs.i386' if you like. > Two things: 1) The problem is known by RH and is something to do with 'yum' (as far as I understand). I suspect it is not just a simple bug, but probably more of a design problem. As such, we have seen no update to yum to fix it (yet). 2) I would have thought that removing a package may cause a problem. Things such as doc files and man pages are architecture independent, so removing a package may well remove them as well. I would suspect that you would have to remove the 32-bit version, and then forcibly install the 64-bit version to ensure that all the required files are present on the system. I could be wrong, an 'rpm -V' would confirm if the remaining 64-bit package is complete or not.
