The server is a vpn with only 20 GB of storage. I would like to free up disk space. Even if I must keep some i86 stuff, I think I can get rid of the dev packages for it.
Thanks, John

Add .i386 respectively .i686 (i.e. for glibc and openssl) to the package names you want to uninstall.

Yes, you can get rid of them as long as nothing depends on them. One easy way is to install rpmorphan. Don't use it blindly, but if you have a lot of extra packages, it helps to sort through them.
