Bug#444340: fglrx-kernel-src: Fails to build on amd64 (multiarch) kernel
hello,
some hints/ideas:
fglrx-driver in etch/amd64 have 32bit binaries in /emul/ia32-linux/
hierarchy. The purpose of these is clear. The question is are these the
same ones found in etch/i386?
digging deeper into the {src}/rules file excerpt:
ifeq ($(DEB_BUILD_ARCH),amd64)
dh_install -p$(PKG_driver) $(ARCH)/usr/X11R6/lib64/*.so*
usr/lib
dh_install -p$(PKG_driver) $(ARCH)/usr/X11R6/lib64/modules/dri/*
usr/lib/dri
dh_install -p$(PKG_driver) $(XDIR)/usr/X11R6/lib64/modules/*
usr/lib/xorg/modules
dh_install -p$(PKG_driver) $(ARCH)/usr/X11R6/lib/*.so*
emul/ia32-linux/usr/lib
dh_install -p$(PKG_driver) $(ARCH)/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/*
emul/ia32-linux/usr/lib/dri
# replace library paths -- careful, these are binary files
rpl -v -e '/usr/X11R6/lib64/modules/dri\0' \
'/usr/lib/dri\0' \
debian/$(PKG_driver)/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2
rpl -v -e '/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri\0' \
'/usr/lib32/dri\0' \
debian/$(PKG_driver)/emul/ia32-linux/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2
else
dh_install -p$(PKG_driver) $(ARCH)/usr/X11R6/lib/*.so*
usr/lib
dh_install -p$(PKG_driver) $(ARCH)/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/*
usr/lib/dri
dh_install -p$(PKG_driver) $(XDIR)/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/*
usr/lib/xorg/modules
# replace library paths -- careful, these are binary files
rpl -v -e '/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri\0' \
'/usr/lib/dri\0!!' \
debian/$(PKG_driver)/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2
endif
as I suspected 32bit files in amd64 and i386 packages are not the same.
I guess, by providing alternative fglrx-driver64 and fglrx-kernel-src64
packages to i386 myght solve the problem...
by the way there are no 32bit binaries in sid/amd64 - they were dropped
by some reason. I guess moving them into fgrx-driver32 package would be
grate...

Now, with a 64 bit kernel running a 32 bit userland, * The module should be 64 bits * The userspace needs to be 32 bits So even if you would have a 64 bits libGL, it would not work with your 32 bit userland, would it ? by the way there are no 32bit binaries in sid/amd64 - they were dropped by some reason. I guess moving them into fgrx-driver32 package would be grate... They were moved when I switched to plain mesa library, which has its own 32 bit binaries for that purpose. However, now that I'll switch back to diverting libGL (pouah...) since in fact fglrx doesn't support plain mesa, I think I'll add them back at that moment. Romain

definitely not :D

userland, would it ?
i do suggest not using 64bit libs, but using 32bit ones form 64bit
source tree...
lets browse sources. there are:
{src}/arch/x86/usr/X11R6/lib/
{src}/arch/x86_64/usr/X11R6/lib/ - these ones are 32bit
{src}/arch/x86_64/usr/X11R6/lib64/
do you now understand what I suggest?
I am not sure, but MABY 32bit libs in x86 source tree are not capable to
communicate to 64bit kernel module, and it fails; and 32bit ones from
x86_64 MIGHT be tuned for this scenario. there must be a reason for
checksum differences :D
