Hello all,
I am running CentOS 5.6 64 bit.
When running "yum -y install ncurses-devel", I expect that only ncurses 64 bit version will be installed.
Try: yum -y install ncurses-devel.x86_64
Or, add “exclude=*.i?86” in your /etc/yum.conf before running the same command you did earlier.
This is what I did and observed.
1. Add "exclude = *.i?86" to /etc/yum.conf cf. http://wiki.centos.org/FAQ/General#head-357346ff0bf7c14b0849c3bcce39677aaca5...
2. Query yum search ncurses-devel Query result: Two ncurses-devel are *still* there!
3. Try to uninstall rpm -e `rpm -q --queryformat "%{name}.%{arch}\n" ncurses-devel` It works like charm, "rpm -qa | grep ncurses-devel"
4. Reinstall sudo yum -y install ncurses-devel Well, this time only 64 bit one was installed. -> ncurses-devel-5.5-24.20060715.x86_64.rpm
# 5. Other "duplicated" rpms # rpm -qa --queryformat='%{n}-%{v}-%{r}.%{arch}\n' | grep '.i[3456]86$' | sort
Thank you,
