Because this repo, SOURCE=http://rlworkman.net/pkgs/14.1/, contains both i486 and x86_64 packages. Excluding packages will lock them out from being installed but it will not stop it from being shown in the package listing.

Code: Select all
spkg -d libreoffice-3.6.3
Did you try it? I believe it should but if not try the complete name, libreoffice-3.6.3-i686-1gv
