Hi, I have a Compaq Presario with a AMD Trion64 and I noticed that lots
of packages get installed in two distinct versions: one for 64bit and
another for 32bit system.

So I have things like this:

# rpm -qa kdeutils
kdeutils-3.5.6-3.fc7.x86_64
kdeutils-3.5.6-3.fc7.i386

Is it a bad idea to remove the 32bit package?

Martin
