For a few days now, I've been getting update errors because (apparently) the 32 bit pam isn't yet in the repos even though the 64 bit version is newer:
Problem 1: pam-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686 has inferior architecture - cannot install both pam-1.5.2-13.fc36.x86_64 and pam-1.5.2-12.fc36.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package pam-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686 - cannot install the best update candidate for package pam-1.5.2-12.fc36.x86_64 Problem 2: package libpwquality-1.4.4-7.fc36.i686 requires pam(x86-32), but none of the providers can be installed - package pam-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686 requires pam-libs(x86-32) = 1.5.2-12.fc36, but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install both pam-libs-1.5.2-13.fc36.i686 and pam-libs-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686 - cannot install the best update candidate for package pam-libs-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686 - cannot install the best update candidate for package libpwquality-1.4.4-7.fc36.i686 Problem 3: problem with installed package pam-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686 - package pam-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686 requires pam-libs(x86-32) = 1.5.2-12.fc36, but none of the providers can be installed - pam-libs-1.5.2-12.fc36.i686 has inferior architecture - cannot install both pam-libs-1.5.2-13.fc36.x86_64 and pam-libs-1.5.2-12.fc36.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package pam-libs-1.5.2-12.fc36.x86_64
In the past these sorts of things have gone away if I waited a couple of days, but it has been doing this all week. Is a proper 32 bit pam going to land soon?
I'm not sure why I currently have 32 bit pam installed, any drastic consequences for removing all the 32 bit pam packages? There certainly doesn't appear to be a vast number of packages dnf wants to remove if I say erase pam.i686 and pam-libs.i686.

They build from the same source package, https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=2010513 so they should be in sync. Maybe the i686 package isn't getting karma and will only be posted when the karma / testing period expires.

If nothing is using it, and the x86_64 version is installed, there should be no consequences. But, I'm not speaking from any experience, just general logic. You could try moving the executable out of the way, and see if there are any consequences. If not, just move the executable back and remove the package.
Hi, I am getting this exact problem since about a week or two weeks ago that I noticed. Still no resolution? Thx

I did a dnf erase on the old 32 bit lib and let it take a couple of things with it, and haven't had a single problem since then. I don't know why the 32 bit lib was installed, but removing it let the update proceed and nothing seems to be broken.
