What has happened most likely is that you still have i386 rpm packages
installed, but only x86_64 repositories configured. Run
rpm -qa --qf %{n}-%{v}-%{r}.%{arch}\\n rpm\*
to find out. Get rid of the i386 packages, exclude= them in yum.conf
if necessary.
Thanks ... that was it ... an i386 rpm of the same name. However, I
could not just "exclude=*.i386" ... there's too many of them such that
if I update rpm, it tries to update popt but it too has an i386 rpm
that is depended on by other i386 rpms and so forth .... Is there a
clean and safe way to uninstall all the i386 rpms ?
