There is precedent for doing it both ways: IRIX 6.2 and later have /usr/lib, /usr/lib32 and /usr/lib64 for the three supported ABIs (O32, N32 and N64 respectively). > How do other Linux vendors (Debian, SuSE etc.) handle this issue? > I would expect them to be facing the same problems as RH and to have > similar work-arounds applied to libtool. SuSE also ship biarch systems with separate 64-bit /usr/lib64 and 32-bit /usr/lib, I believe Mandrake do too, and I believe Debian haven't worked out how (or whether) to do biarch yet. joe _______________________________________________ Libtool mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
