Yes, I know how to ask for one or the other package. What I want is to be able to ask:

   $ rpm -qi some-package-name

and being told not only size and installation date and ... but also the architecture of the package. This is basic information about the package, so when asking for information I should get it.

Could be important when asking say:

   $ rpm -qif /some/misterious/file

(but then again, if that file is shared by packages for e.g. i386 and x86_64...)
