I am still having multilib problems on fedora 9.
   yum-3.2.16-2.fc9.noarch
   python-2.5.1-25.fc9.ppc

I have an rpm with two arches:  foo.ppc and foo.ppc64.
In my yum repository, they are both default installs.
I need both of them to install.

I set multilib_policy=all in my yum.conf file,
Now, instead of installing only the ppc rpm,
the ppc64 rpm is installed instead.

Putting some prints in yum/__init__.py, it seems to be
the call the packagesNewestByName that is causing this.
Here is the output of my prints:
    isMultiLibArch=1
    multilib_policy=all
    before call to packagesNewestByName, pkgs= [<YumAvailablePackageSqlite:
foo.ppc (0x10f1d070)>, <YumAvailablePackageSqlite : foo.ppc64
(0x10f28b10)>]
    after call to packagesNewestByName, pkgs= [<YumAvailablePackageSqlite:
foo.ppc64 (0x10f28b10)>]
Then foo.ppc64 installs, and foo.ppc does not.

Is there something else I need to set?  Am I perhaps doing something wrong?

Thank you for your help.
