dumb question

Yes you can install both and I do install both of several libs
and I don't have it handy but I think a previous post in this list
explained how the packages can discern which architecture lib they want

Oh. But *can* you install (as the example we're using) *both* the zlib i386
*and* the zlib x86_64 packages? I would not have thought that you could,
nor would I have thought that you wanted to, since I'd think that packages
that expected to use the latter would have trouble, accidentally getting
the wrong lib.
