A related question: I would love to be able to tell rpm to favor a 
particular architecture if it finds packages for more than one.  For 
instance, I would like for this command:

# cd os
# rpm -Fvh i686/* i386/*

to freshen everything in i386, but in cases where there is a duplicate 
package in i686, to use that one instead.

At the moment, I simply do this explicitly with a script which does the
i686 packages first.  It's a bit cumbersome in cases of packages (such
as glibc) which have i686-optimized versions but which have dependencies
in the i386 directory which must be satisfied, and this makes it more
difficult to automate ... is there a simpler way?
