X86_64 version of urpmi broken?
 

I put together a new system with an AMD Athlon64/X2 dual-core processor,
and installed the X86_64 version of Mandriva 2006. Now I'm trying to
apply the updates, and getting nothing but grief. I've added the update
media:

urpmi.addmedia --update updates \
ftp://mandrake.contactel.cz/Mandrakelinux/official\
/updates/x86_64/2006.0/main_updates/ \
with media_info/hdlist.cz

But when I try to update the system with
urpmi --media updates --auto-select

I get an initial dependency failure
Some package requested cannot be installed:
libkdecore4-3.4.2-31.3.20060mdk.i586 (due to unsatisfied
kdelibs-common[== 30000000:3.4.2-31.3.20060mdk])
libkdecore4-devel-3.4.2-31.3.20060mdk.i586 (due to unsatisfied
libkdecore4[== 30000000:3.4.2-31.3.20060mdk])

followed by a slew of uninstall requests due to cascading dependency
failures:
The following packages have to be removed for others to be upgraded:
ImageMagick-6.2.4.3-1mdk.i586 (due to missing ghostscript)
WindowMaker-0.92.0-3mdk.i586 (due to unsatisfied mandrake_desk >=
8.3-3mdk, due to missing menu)

== 6.9)
a2ps-4.13b-8mdk.i586 (due to missing ImageMagick)
amarok-1.3.1-3mdk.i586 (due to missing libDCOP.so.4, due to missing
libkdecore.so.4, due to missing libkdefx.so.4, due to missing

libkwalletclient.so.1, due to missing libkonqsidebarplugin.so.1, due to
missing amarok-engine, due to missing kdemultimedia-common)

etc., etc., basically uninstalling the entire system.

I've verified ghostscript is installed:
#rpm -qa | grep ghostscript
ghostscript-module-X-8.15-21mdk
ghostscript-8.15-21mdk
ghostscript-fonts-8.11-4mdk

And I've also checked and found that the kde libs it's complaining about
are on the update site.

I've tried rebuilding the rpm database with no effect.

What gives? I've been running Mandrake/Mandrive since 7.x, and this is the
first time I've had problems like this.

Never mind
 

It's usually pilot error. <sigh>

Somehow I either mislabeled the DVD's or burned the wrong ISO. Apparently I actually installed the 32-bit version, so of course things won't work when I try to update with the 64-bit archives. Duh!
