From memory, <pre> yum install foo.[ARCH] yum update foo.[ARCH] </pre> A thread on the subject: http://www.nabble.com/installing-multiple-arches-td17546685.html I wasn't aware of multilib_policy value but doesn't appear to be in the man pages for CentOS 3.9, 4.6 or 5.2. Based upon the date of the thread might be only available in the latest version of yum. ---------------------------------------- Bug #1380: type package with yum installs/updates native arch http://reductivelabs.com/redmine/issues/show/1380 Author: lludwig Status: Needs more information Priority: Normal Assigned to: Category: Red Hat Target version: Keywords: Complexity: Unknown Patch: None Affected version: 0.24.4 If you are running on a 64 bit (x86_64) version of CentOS/RHEL the type 'package' will only download and install the rpm for the native arch. Here is an example. class freetype { package { "freetype": ensure => latest, } package { "freetype-devel": ensure => latest, require => Package["freetype"], } } [EMAIL PROTECTED] package]# rpm -q -a | grep freetype freetype-2.1.9-7.el4.6 freetype-2.1.9-8.el4.6 freetype-devel-2.1.9-8.el4.6 There are two versions of freetype installed. One x86_64 and the other i386. Puppet only installed the x86_64 version and did not update the i386 version.

Please wait. ---> Package freetype.i386 0:2.1.9-8.el4.6 set to be updated --> Running transaction check Dependencies Resolved ============================================================================= Package Arch Version Repository Size ============================================================================= Updating: freetype i386 2.1.9-8.el4.6 update 764 k I suggest to adding an option to the 'package' type to allow a either: allmatches - install all Arch i386, x86_64 (or whatever) - installs specific arch ---------------------------------------- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
