Right, but the build options used and how to change them are not so obvious. I'll be glad to offer a suggestion later. > If You run it from a 32-bit system, You'll get a 32-bit package, if in a > 64-bit one, a 64-bit package. Okay, that works. But I can't find where the package is actually named according to architecture--probably in one of the deb helper progs. >> 2.

Download brlcad_7.20.2-0_i386.deb (57.1 MB) should read: Looking for the latest version? See BRL-CAD Version 7.20.2. and "BRL-CAD Version 7.20.2" be a link to the directory with the latest binary releases. >> 4.
