Hi,

I'm using the smart-1.0-5.1 rpm package on openSUSE 11.0 x86_64.

"smart upgrade --dump" makes several proposals. I do not want to update
all the packages, so I use in this case "smart install
wireshark-1.0.3-8.1 at x86_64 libmad0-0.15.1b-1.pm.4 at x86_64"

Smart reacts with:
---snip---
Computing transaction...

Upgrading packages (3):
  libmad0-0.15.1b-1.pm.4 at i586           libmad0-0.15.1b-1.pm.4 at x86_64
      wireshark-1.0.3-8.1 at x86_64
---pins---

Why does the CLI want to install the i586 version of the package libmad0?

When I use "smart --gui", the i586 version is taken, too, but I can
unselect ("keep") it. So only the both packages I want are installed.

BTW, attempting to install the i586 and x86_64 results in an error,
since some files are already installed, and some dependencies are not
fulfilled.

I remember a version where Smart did not try to install a i586 version
together with x86_64...

Regards,
Werner
