Description Brad Buckingham 2008-07-23 19:14:20 UTC
Description of problem:

Listing packages (systems->system->software->packages->list):

Selecting a package from the package list associated with an x86_64 client
displays the details of an x86_64 package, even if the client has the i386
package installed. This is due to the fact that the package data in
rhnServerPackage for x86_64 clients does not have the package architecture
populated. 

From initial analysis, impact to backend is anticipated.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. select Systems
2. select an x86_64 system
3. select Software -> Packages -> List
4. select a Package from the list that you know is i386 on the client (e.g. libjpeg)
  
Actual results:
Package details displayed are for the x86_64 package.

Expected results:
Package details displayed should be for the i386 package that is actually installed.
