CentOS - Jun 2005 - x86_64 duplicate packages problem with apt

I installed Centos3.4-x86_64 and I notice that I get duplicate packages. 
i.e. I also notice that the duplate packages exist on the cd install as 
well.


[root at bayamo RPMS]# rpm -qa | grep pam_krb
pam_krb5-1.73-1
pam_krb5-1.73-1


when I use apt after downloading from Dag's site it complains about 
duplicate packages after running apt-get update.

I am missing something to get my x86_64 system to update with apt the same 
way i386 system does, Mebbe someone can provide a hint.

x86_64 and i386 package version.

rpm -q pam_krb --qf '%{name} %{version} - %{arch}'

Use yum - apt isn't multiarch capable.

I rewrote my kickstart files to use yum.
and everything is working perfectly fine now.
Can you comment on why apt does not support multiple architectures ?
