Hello,
Its me again. Once again, I'm throwing myself on your mercy because
although I like programming and packaging, I am having a horrible time

This is a multiarch issue I had not considered before. Have you seen
it? I never wanted to be a "cross compiler", I really only want to
build amd64. But I have some i386 libraries for a particular program
(acroread).
I've just learned that, if I build amd64 packages, I can't install
them for test

The Evince invisible single upright quotation mark problem still
exists! I just wasted about 20 minutes trying to read a document about
a computer program and couldn't figure it out because the quotes were
invisible.
I tried to report this against Evince in Debian, but the page that
reportbug took
I'm reporting this here because I expect other users might run into
this problem with the mulitlib migration and Debian developers might
need to know about it.
Last week I posted here about a Wheezy problem in the transition to
multilib. I had added the i386 arch and upgraded with apt-get. After

I installed Wheezy beta 4 from CD and was surprised that compiz window
manager was removed. Compiz is the best thing about Linux, that's a
shame. I tracked down some explanations, don't want to start a flame
war about that decision.
But, even though Debian is not including compiz, I still love it

I suspect this is another multiarch growing pains problem. I'm on
Debian Wheezy with multiarch enabled. I'm trying to understand a

For example, lets rebuild the blt package.

Here's a cautionary heads up on the transition from ordinary to multilib Debian.
I run Debian Wheezy amd64. Some 32 bit applications are installed, and
somehow I came to a point where ia32libs wanted to update and
transition me to a multilib setup. I'm still trying to figure out if
