Yum, which pup users, will install both the i386 and the x86_64 version of a 
package if you request to install "package".  This ensures that you have a 
proper environment for running 32 bit software if need be.

If there is a conflict between the i386 and the x86_64 version of a package 
provided in the x86_64 repository, then there is a bug in said package.  If 
the package is supplied multiarch it must not have any conflicts.
