I am learning about OpenVZ and I have seen that
Vzyum, vzpkgcache and vzrpm are broken in 64 bit systems.
These tools seems to be desupported from many years ago.
I don't know if these tools are useful. Three questions:
1- Do I miss functionality or ease utilization?
2- wiki.openvz.org/Install_OpenVZ_on_a_x86_64_system_Centos-Fed ora states:
The yum cache is not common to all containers. Instead, each container has it's own yum cache in the directory /var/cache/yum-cache.
If I understand well, now I can't use a only image for install in all my VPS. Now I have to construct this image for all VPS?
3- Can it be easy to fix them? If it is a work of a few days I could try to fix them in the next weeks? Did somebody create some patches for them?

Those tools assist package management inside the VEs from the host. They never have existed for not rpm-based distros i.e. Ubuntu, Debian. This shows that you can do without them very well, Ubuntu is very popular on OpenVZ. I wouldn't worry about it.
