Hi Erich: So with the current implementation, if I have blah.i386 installed prior to OSCAR and then I install blah.x86_64 and then run start_over, both RPMs will not be removed, right?
Perhaps we should also put the arch in the list... however, this does not solve the corner case where multiple versions have been installed...
