Comment 1 Jeremy Katz 2006-04-26 16:58:50 UTC
i386 packages aren't generally included in the x86_64 extras repos.

Comment 2 Phil Wirtz 2006-04-27 22:07:54 UTC
but you do in core


Comment 3 Phil Wirtz 2006-04-27 22:17:26 UTC
basically I would rather have a package that works even if it is the wrong
specifc arch than an exact arch package that doesn't work. Update when the exact
arch works.
