Ok for the default of multilib, but couldn't it be possible at least to ask
an option at os install time, so that only x86_64 arch packages are
installed?
I seem to remember exactarch=1 in yum.conf or something similar when you
have a running system, but I don't know if during anaconda install time yum
is used or not....
It would be nice to be able to install only x86_64 packages on a x86_64
system, finally!
To get rid of all i386 packages:
# yum erase glibc.i686
To make them never come back:
# yum install yum-basearchonly
To make them never get installed:
Keep pestering the installer team. :)
