The weirdness with the [dag_i386] stuff is to be able to find i386 packages on my x86_64 arch. On a 32-bit machine the 1st entries are sufficient.
My x86_64 repository used to be a merge of i386 and x86_64. Sadly Yum cannot handle this. (ie. it installs both archs) See Yum bugzilla for the report.
After a bunch of mails from confused Yum users I decided to keep them seperated.
Dag,
Thanks for the enlightenment on the reasoning. Only noticed the problem when trying to install packages that are i386-only on x86_64. It would be nice if the i386-only packages showed up in the x86_64 repo; however, that sounds likely to be an extra manual load on you, unless some bright person can suggest a way to automate the process.
Regards, Phil
