Hi all:
I have freshly installed Fedora 12 x86_64 in my PC 2 weeks ago. Now I see that I have some (49) packages in both i686 and x86_64 architectures. The list is at the end of the message.
What should I do?
Thanks, Germán.

My guess is that you probably installed some package that needs i686 libs. You can try to yum remove them, and see what is to be removed as a dependency. Hopefully it will give you a clue why they are there.

Hello!
Thanks for replying. When I try to remove them, it also wants to remove for dependencies:
gtk2-engines-aurora.i586 gtk2-engines-candido.i586
which I've installed last week. My idea is to remove those gtk engines and to package them myself for x86_64...
Thanks, Germán.

The libraries are what you would get if you installed a 32 bit package and it pulled in dependencies. If you installed something which runs a lot of the commands you saw by execv (in some languages shell or system procedure) then they may have been pulled in the same way.
Unless you have some misbehavior I would do nothing if it were my system.

I haven't figured out the right way to deal with this, but I did just last night finally purge an upgraded system of its 32-bit packages with something like:
rpm -qa | grep '86$' | sort | xargs --verbose rpm -e --nodeps
And then ran:
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
and:
package-cleanup --problems
with successful results. So far so good, yum runs well again.

Hi Bill:
Thanks for your suggestions. The problem was that I had installed the following packages:
gtk2-engines-aurora.i586 gtk2-engines-candido.i586
in my Fedora x86_64, which pulled the dependencies.
But now, I have packaged the engines Candido and Aurora for 64-bit and then I removed all the 32-bit dependencies installed before without any problems.
Thanks, Germán.
