I'm trying to revive rpms/hadoop, but am running into some

really have any good 32-bit environment to test this locally. Hadoop isn't
really suitable for 32-bit architectures (IMO) and I doubt it's a well-tested
upstream arch.
Any suggestions for how I should proceed? Is it really necessary that *all*
packages support i686 arch, even when it doesn't make sense for the
application's users?

Probably best to engage upstream to figure out what's wrong (or if they want to
assert that i686 is unsupported). If i686 is truly not ever going to work,
that's what ExcludeArch is for.
