Running rpm_check_debug
Running Transaction Test


Transaction Check Error:
  file /usr/include/isc/platform.h conflicts between attempted installs of bind-devel-32:9.7.0-5.P2.el6.x86_64 and bind-devel-32:9.7.0-5.P2.el6.i686
--- Additional comment from atodorov on 2010-10-20 14:02:24 EEST ---

For the conflicting documentation files see bug #449731 (RHEL4) - it requested that rpm ignores file conflicts under /usr/share/doc to work around several multilib conflicts on ia64.
