I have a couple 64-bit CentOS 5 installations here and was wondering if there was a yum option to have it install only x86_64 arch by default if no arch is specified.
I tired of having to append .x86_64 on all package names I only want the x86_64 versions of, if I want the i386 versions too I would add the .i386 package to the list...
The exclude= line in this post -> http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2007-August/003751.html should help you out.
Drop that in the individual repo files, or globally in your yum.conf Should work for you.
