Yum problem on update on x86_64

[Alan]

I found an odd problem with yum. Hopefully this description will make
sense.

I am updating parts of Fedora Core 4 test 1 using Yum on an x86_64.

If I update something that drags in a package to satisfy a dependency
for one architecture (x86_64 usually) for a package with multiple
architectures installed, it does not update the other architecture. This
causes the update to fail.

For example, I try and update nautilus, it wants to update libexif.
There are two copies of libexif installed, but only one architecture
gets dragged into the update.

I am also seeing occasional failures like this:

[root at dagon ~]# yum update libexif* naut* eog* kdegra*
