Ovirt devel - Feb 2008 - Suggestion for the wui-appliance

Well it would be nice to remove all the i386 packages on the x86_64 build
that can add up to a lot of wasted space and sometimes make updates harder.
Did someone tried after running
  yum remove *.i386

Completely agree. i386 packages on x86_64 are only required for purposes
of back-compatability with legacy (usually closed source) applications.
Since we have no legacy apps in the admin or host images, there is no
need to carry about i386 pacakges - they should all die.

Dan.
