First, I cannot recommend that you ever run 'make uninstall' : that is hardly ever tested - in most cases it will work fine. But if it doesn't, your system might be broken. As Bruce says, we don't support multilib in the book. If your existing system is multilib, you might want to look at cross-lfs (specifically cblfs - from memory, almost everything is built as both 32-bit and 64-bit). For sorting out what you have done : everything in lib64 should be 64-bit (use file to check the binaries), everything in lib on multilib should be 32-bit. You haven't specified -m64 or -m32 on what you've done, so looking at the programs you compiled should tell you if your gcc defaults to 32-bit or 64-bit : I would expect 32-bit but knowing is better than assuming. If you are building as 64-bit, use PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib64/pkgconfigfile as well as LIBDIR, and forcing -m64 if you need to. If you build as 32-bit on that system, and 64-bit turns out to be its default, use -m32 as well as .usr/lib. 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
