This is actually a very good idea. Automatically generate the library subset of a task, teach tasksel to add the required arch tags, and make it as easy as a checkbox or a command line option to add most of the libraries you might ever need for a secondary arch. This could go a long way to make it less painful (if a _lot_ more wasteful of inodes and disk space) to deal with 32-bit non-debian applications. That said, for now, it is best to learn how to use the "ldd" utility to root out missing libraries for any binary. It *really* helps. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
