FYI:

Installing onto 64-bit hardware, CentOS 6.2, from 

http://sourceforge.net/projects/firebird/files/firebird-linux-amd64/2.5.1-Release/FirebirdSS-2.5.1.26351-0.amd64.rpm/download

gives this error (Firefox browser -> RPM manager alert) :

Package /tmp/Firebird... 
has incompatible architecture amd64. Valid architectures are ['ia32e', 
'x86_64', 'athlon', 'i686', 'i586', 'i486', 'i386', 'noarch']

[Close]

I saw a note elsewhere (December 2011 message) where someone else could not 
install but did not see a detailed reason. That person just got a STOP error.

Anyway it seems wrong that the RPM would not work. The 32-bit RPM ran without 
complaints, fwiw.
