CentOS - Jun 2009 - Why yum-cron is only at x86_64 system?

Hello, all.
 
 
I have operated centos 4.x and 5.x system.
 
    for 4.x system, I auto update using yum
and for 5.x system, using yum-cron.
 
but I can't find any yum-cron package (i386) like below.
 
# yum search yum-cron(at i686, centox 5.3)

Warning: No matches found for: yum-cron
No Matches found

# yum search yum-cron(at x86_64, centos 5.3)
==================================================== Matched: yum-cron
====================================================yum-cron.noarch : Files
needed to run yum updates as a cron job

 
I don't know why the result was different?
 
 
Thanks in advance.

To the best of my knowledge, yum-cron is depricated and has been
replaced with an update daemon of it's own.

yum-cron has a bit of history really.

But in a nutshell, do you need yumcron to do something that cant be done
with yum-updatesd itself ? Make sure you look at the -o option before
deciding :)
