i386 xfsprogs missing from i386 repo

Post by dean.scothern » 2016/10/25 14:21:47

I've recently being trying to update xfsprogs on a 32 bit intel vm and not succeeding.
After a bit of searching I found out that the 32 bit package is not in the 32 bit repo but is in the 64bit repo ie:

http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/os/x8 ... 6.i686.rpm

Shouldn't it be in the i386 area?

If so should I raise it as a bug on the bugzilla?

Best Regards

As far as I remember, xfs is not supported on i386.

Ah, finally found a reference for that -- search for "Red Hat Enterprise Linux does not support XFS on 32-bit machines" on that page.

Thanks.
The old vm doesn't seem to have an xfs filesystem and there were no dependencies when I removed the package.
