Install Only X86_64 Yum
I've been using option exactarch=1 in /etc/yum.conf for some time, and it has worked for me. It still allows you to manually specify arch, but if you don't, it install only x8664, not both. According to el6 manual, yum.conf(5): exactarch Either ‘1’ or ‘0’. Set to ‘1’ to make yum update only update the architectures of packages that you have installed. Ie: with this enabled yum will not install an i686 package to update an i386 package. Default is ‘1’. Multilibpolicy Can be set to ’all’ or ’best’.
