Hello all,
It's me again with an annoying question.
When I try to install subversion on a 64bit machine with dag and
sl-security repos enabled I get these sorts of results:
..............................................................................
[r...@machine yum.repos.d]# uname -rm

Is there a reason why yum wants to install the i386 version of
subversion on an x86_64 machine? Have I misconfigured something somewhere?

Please let me know if you need more information. I can selectively
install the x86_64 package by:
yum install subversion.x86_64
so it's OK in the end, but it seems kind of weird to me to install an
i386 package in x86_64.
The same thing happens with xdelta too, but the i386 package is from
sl-base instead of sl-security.
Thanks,
~Chris
