Hi, I've been working on wrappers for apt and dpkg-deb to get some resemblance of multiarch that can still make it for etch. The first thing I made to work is installing amd64 kernels on i386 and anyone interested is welcome to try a very alpha release:
ftp://mrvn.homeip.net/apt-get-multiarch/ Beware that only the linux-kernel packages will work at all in this release. Everything else (like iptables) will fail with file conflicts. Don't try non kernel packages with --force-overwrite (default on stable dpkg). Future aim for this is to allow 32bit OpenOffice.org, rar, mplayer + w32codecs, acrobat-reader to be installed on amd64/ia64. And any library some 3rd party software might need. Just run "apt-get install ia32-libfoo" and it is there. MfG Goswin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
