I booted into my CentOS 5.3 fresh install and Instant Messenger (pidgin) was missing. That’s ok, let we install it:

How could it ask me if this is ok!? No, it’s not ok! I don’t want to install .x86 version since I’m using x86_64. This is not my arch.
I’ve used Ubuntu at Desktop from September/October…and forgot about multilib_policy in yum.conf. This directive tells yum to install the best matches for packages. Pasting directly from yum.conf’s man page:
multilib_policy
Can be set to ’all’ or ’best’. All means install all possible arches for any package you want to install. Therefore yum install
foo will install foo.i386 and foo.x86_64 on x86_64, if it is available. Best means install the best arch for this platform,
only.
After set it in yum.conf, I can install the right package arch:
