Rudder

• Technique name: Package management for RHEL / CentOS / SuSE / RPM systems
• Technique version: 5.1
• Package to be installed: gd.i386

This is what is installed:

# yum list installed gd | tail -1
gd.x86_64                      2.0.33-9.4.el5_4.2                      installed

This is what i found in the logs:

Which is correct:

# yum install gd.i386-*
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities, security
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Setting up Install Process
No package gd.i386-* available.
Nothing to do

It should be installed like this (mind the omitted dash):

# yum install gd.i386*
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities, security
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Setting up Install Process

In the past the technique did install the correct package - i386 on a 64 bit system. Can't remember the last version of Rudder/technique where it was still working.
