This is a third-party package with poorly constructed depends in a mixed 32 and 64 bit environment as I support moving from Centos5 to Centos6. Repackaging the vendor package is easy but it would need to be done at each release. I've solved the problem of the day by installing the needed libstdc+ +34-3.4.0-1.i386 specifically but it's a clunky way to deal with this issue. I would love to find a crafty puppet way to do this.
