This sounds sane, or at least what most distros seem to do. I'm still getting my head around multilib, am I right in thinking that any package that provides libraries for use by other packages [ and that doesn't understand multilib ] has to be built twice, first time as 32-bit, and therefore any executables (e.g. from bzip2) from the second (64-bit) build overwrite the 32-bit versions ?
