Description Denis Silakov 2013-10-21 13:10:48 MSK
As we saw in bug #2958, urpmi silently exits (with no messages) in case when newer version of a package requested exists in repositories. It woul be nice to print something even in non-debug mode.

Another issue is that urpmi compares versions but not architectures. So if you have foo-2.i586 and foo-1.x86-64 available in 64bit system, urpmi will actually install nothing - first, foo-2 will be rejected since we have 64 bit foo, but foo-1.x86-64 will be rejected since there is a newer foo-2.
