With the help of Tim and James A. I have a patch which lets the user
select what will happen when they are on a multilib arch and they do an:
install foo or install foo* as to which archs it will install by
default.

the config parameter is multilib_policy and it's options are best and
all.

I want some more options :-)

Consider this:

foo-1.0-1.x86_64 installed, a update is coming in: foo-2.0-1. However it's _only_ available as foo.i386.

What should yum do?

Keep foo.x86_64 or upgrade to the foo.i386 package (and add lots of i386
packages)?

See yum/test/simpleupdatetests.py for what yum currently does. Although I think the current behavior is quite sane feel free to point out what situations should be handled differently.
