can yum search for foo and if it finds foo-N-N.x86_64.rpm it
downloads it. If not it will download the 32 bit version. However if
it finds foo-N-N.x86_64.rpm it should not download the 32 bit version
(to prevent conflict).
"It should Just Work(tm) for the user" well my 3 sources have the
same problem, and yum update fails each time. It is not just working
for the user.
Is the conflicting package nautilus ? If so, see
