Greetings,

I was expecting the x86_64 packages to be installed on my x86_64 machines, which happened, but in addition, it installed the 386 version of the package and all its dependencies (duplicates of the x86_64 ones, but in 386).

to reproduce, install ruby-augeas , and take a look at the dependencies.

==what happens==
it will install a bunch of x86_64 and i386 packagaes (with duplicate names of almost all of them)

==what i expect ==
to install x86_64 packs only, and i386 only if necessary

I find it funny that ruby-augeas depends on ruby-augeas:i386

the packages that i think are unnecessary dependencies are :
libaugeas-ruby:i386 (3 0.5.0-1~)
libaugeas-ruby1.8:i386 (3 0.5.0-1~)
libaugeas-ruby1.9.1:i386 (3 0.5.0-1~)
libaugeas-ruby1.9.1:i386 (3 0.5.0-1~)
ruby-augeas:i386 (0 (null))

given that all of them are there in x86_64 arch
