Issue installing pam-1.1.1-10.el6.i686 using yum
When trying to install pam-1.1.1-10.el6.i686 package using yum, we are getting the following error message. We also noticed that there is an existing pam-1.1.1-10.el6.x86_64 is already installed (checked through "rpm -qa | grep pam-1.1.1-10.el6"). Is there a way to resolve/work around this issue.

Command executed: yum localinstall pam-1.1.1-10.el6.i686.rpm

Code:
Errors being noticed:

If you don't want/need the x86_64 then easiest option is to uninstall it and then install the i686 package.

As it is only complaining about man page zipped files if you need both installed then i would install by using rpm --force option.

Thank you for your help.
Yes we need both packages to be installed.
We have already tried rpm --force option but even this does not help.
Could there be any other way to ignore these errors.

Thanks

It is a hack but you could try manually removing or renaming those 4 files.

Thanks for your inputs. We have tried renaming these files but even then we had received same errors.
we can try removing man page files from the existing package and will see if it helps.
Do we need to remove man page files from the package pam-1.1.1-10.el6.i686 (to be installed) If yes then how can we do this.
