I am diagnosing a bug/odditywith a python library that uses Pyrex and

my F16 x86_64 system, and I'm trying to run it and... no dice!
According to rpm, python.x86_64 and python.i686 both own
/usr/bin/python and /usr/bin/python2.7 . Those binaries are 64 bits.
Googling around, I cannot find any clue on how to run the 32 bit
binary.
Had optimistically assumed that I'd find python.i686 stashed somewhere
when I looked at rpm -ql python.686 ...
Welcome to rpm. ELF files have a wacky concept called "color", which
means you can have both .i686 and .x86_64 versions of the same package
installed with no conflict and the x86_64 version wins on disk.
Use a chroot or an i686 vm. Or possibly just do rpmdev-extract on the
i686 version and run it directly.
