This might not be the best forum to ask, but as it relates a dmd bug,
I hope others here have found a workaround.
I'm using a debian-based x64 distro. Due to
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=5570, I have to compile
for -m32.
The challenge is installing 32-bit libraries using apt-get. I've
found some "solutions" on the web, but they are all terrible hacks,
and I haven't gotten it working properly.
Downloading packages directly (and all dependencies!) is a real drag!
Has someone found an acceptable way of dealing with this?
Hello simendsjo,
All deb packages at http://dlang.org/download.html includes both
32-bit and 64-bit libraries, so, on a debian-based x64 distro, just
install the 64-bit deb, and You'll be able to compile to 32-bit just
adding -m32 as argument.
Same situation for debian-based x32 distros, You can compile to 64-bit
adding -m64 as argument. Of course, you'll not allowed to run a 64-bit
binary on a x32 platform.
Best regards,
Thanks, but I was probably not very clear when writing the question.
DMD itself is not a problem (rather than the bug which forces me to
only use 32-bit), it's all the packages available through the package
manager - it only downloads 64-bit libraries.
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.
Best regards,
I have ia32-libs, but say I want to install mysql? I can only get x64
versions thourgh the package manager. Trying to download and install
32-bit .deps says it's conflicting with the installed x64 library.
