Hi,

Maybe this question will demonstrate that I have no experience with 64 bits systems, but I don't mind it :)

When installing the git package, several dependencies are pulled, but two of them come from 32 bits media:

(medium "Core 32bit Release")
perl-Authen-SASL 2.150.0 3.mga1 noarch (suggested)
   perl-Error                     0.170.160    1.mga1        noarch
23MB of additional disk space will be used.
4.7MB of packages will be retrieved.


I don't understand why perl-Authen-SASL and perl-Error are installed from 32 bits media instead of the 64 bits Core Release.

Do you have any clue?


Because they are noarch we dont care from wich arch repo it comes from as it's the same package.

AFAICT there is an actual problem underneath this, f.ex. when using virtual provides to install packages, but the cases are really rare where this happens to non-noarch-packages. But i've seen a case where
an i586 package was preferred over x86_64, but can't really remember which :(
