I'm investigating whether or not nspluginwrapper is suitable for packaging.
nspluginwrapper lets you use i386 plugins on non-i386 machines. Because of the fact that it requires an i386-runtime plugin to be built, it's pretty much unsuitable for any architecture other than x86_64 (and possibly ia64, since I gather it has an i386 multiarch, unsure whether it has gcc -m32). When building, the plugin side is built with gcc, and the runtime side is built with gcc -m32. Installing ia32-libs, libc6-dev-i386 gets most of the dependancies, and writing linker scripts helps link to the X libraries in /emul/ia32-linux, but the big missing piece of the puzzle is libgtk2.0, specifically a i386 library for it to link against. Is it likely that we'll see a lib32gtk2.0-0 package in the forthcoming future? Google hints that one may have existed in the past. -- rob andrews :: pgp 0x01e00563 :: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
