Hi, all,

I had an interesting time updating a machine from i686 to x86_64 last night. I wound up using rpm alot, and would rather have used yum more, but for problems like the one noted below (just one example out of a large number of similar instances).

Is there a way to get yum to not fret about file conflicts when replacing one arch with another with the same base package name?

Dependency resolution and RPM seems to be happy, but the transaction check (OK, I don't really know what that means) doesn't seem to understand what's happening.

Thanks,
-Bill
