And since there have been several threads over the last little while wherein people have been confused about having apparent duplicate packages (one each of the 32 and 64 bit variety), I think lots of people are not realizing/understanding this issue. The CentOS Wiki doesn't even have (at least not apparent and search-able) entries for 64 bit related questions that I could find, and while there may be useful information in the forum, it is again not readily apparent. So, have I missed this resource, or do we need to get one created? -- Dave K Unix Systems & Network Administrator Mount Laurel NJ
