This is not strictly truth. dmd deb packages installs, among others, "gcc-multilib", witch make possible to compile to 32-bit in x64 platform and vice versa . > If I want to use a c library, I need to find both the library and all it's > dependencies as 32-bit libraries rather than just installing through the > package manager. > It can be a tedious process.. > If you want to run a 32-bit program on a x64, install "ia32-libs" and all its dependencies, through the package manager.
