The big difference is that we need to maintain a completely separate
second set of packages for multilib, while on Debian you use the exact
same packages whether i386 is your main architecture or a secondary
architecture. For us, the native i686 and x86_64 packages almost
always contain the same fi
Hi,
IMHO, we already have multiarch support; I come from Debian and I really
don't see any substantial difference with what we have in Arch.
OK, in Arch you have to add a repo, but in Debian you have to tell dpkg to
accept "i386" as a secondary architecture (# dpkg --add-architecture i386).

*buntu a long time ago switched to dash, Arch should do this too.
I wrote my idea first on the irc, but i think here is a better place.
The idea is to give up multiarch repo and make pacman and archlinux
capable for real multiarch support
That means u could install a 32bit package from the normal repos core,
extra, community usw and not from multilib repo i

I absolutely agree with your statement and that is why I don't care
about the sh link ;). IMO it's the useless link ever. My scripts ask for

Oh, "such bugs" really only exist in bash. I believe no other shell
processes an env var with a magic token into a function definition.

With the disclosure of the new bash bug (CVE-2014-6271, CVE-2014-7169),
it seems timely to bring this up.
Dan added dash to core/base around seven years ago [1], intending the
eventually link /bin/sh to dash instead of bash.

Hi Martti,
I did mention that I have been playing with the hooks and systemd in my
initial mail. At least I thought that would be clear. Sorry if it was not.
I will try to make that more clear next time. Was my first post here, I
only joined this list recently.
My question about how to open a deb
At least for the last 15 minutes (since around 7 PM CEST) some of Arch
Linux sites have been down:
http://www.archlinux.org/
https://www.archlinux.org/packages/
https://bugs.archlinux.org/
https://www.archlinux.org/download/
The forum and wiki seem unaffected.
I listen to quite a few radio stations through rhythmbox, and all of them now
fail to play with an error of "Could not determine type of stream."
I noticed that gstreamer updated yesterday to 1.4.3. Might that be the issue?
Are others experiencing similar problems?

hi tobias,
I wasn't taking you rude. But implying you were using custom packages
while we're trying to debug an issue is generally seen as a serious
undermining of any help... Such things are to be mentioned beforehand,
since the basic assumption is a repo install.
cheers!

Hi Martti,
It was definitely not my intention to be rude. I am sorry if I gave
that impression.
Thanks again for taking the time to help me!
Best Regards,

Try not to insult people trying to help you like that...
