Packages, which have not been rebuilt for F-14, may still contain an
older distribution tag (such as ".fc12") in their package release name.
With the x86_64 arch you can also install and run i686 for 32-bit
compatibility. Not all i686 packages are available in the Yum repository
for x86_64, though. Just a subset.
