If /usr/lib64 would be correct, why does GTK_LIB_DIR return /usr/lib while KDE3_LIB_DIR returns /usr/lib64 on the very same amd64 box? I mean as long as one of them is a symlink to the other it's not really false, but CMake could at least try to be consistent couldn't it? > If you don't compile for /usr/lib64 then you break compatibility with > other linux systems. Really? Is it safe to assume /usr/lib is correct for every arch Debian supports, so I can hardcode it instead of relying on KDE3_LIB_DIR?
