For gnome stuff, you will also need to consider how to access the correct pango modules and aliases, and the correct gdk-pixbuf-csource, gtk-query-immodules. Plus, gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders needs to run *both* sizes when it is executed (at run-time). For multilib gnome, you will also need to access any 32-bit bonobo servers from the 64-bit servers directory once 64-bit libbonobo is installed. Fortunately, I've found no reason to build bi-arch kde, that all works fine as 64-bit, even on ppc64. My solutions are not exactly the same as what is in cblfs, so you may prefer to follow that completely. Either way, multilib is probably best discussed in clfs-support - the bottom line is that a multilib desktop can work nicely, but there is a lot of pain along the way, some of the details change when packages are updated, and you may have to throw away your first couple of attempts.
If you aren't on multilib, you _really_ don't want lib64 in your system - apart from popt, presence of lib64 on non-multilib is usually down to user error, or perhaps a side-effect of trying to use proprietary video drivers. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
