Bug#535515: Please add /lib32 and /usr/lib32 on i386

2009-07-02 Thread Goswin Brederlow
Package: libc6 Version: 2.9-18 Severity: wishlist Hi, libraries like libX11.so.6.2.0 look for locales in /usr/lib/X11/locale. Other libraries look for plugins in /usr/lib/package. It would be nice if those packages could be compiled to use /usr/lib32/X11/locale and /usr/lib32/package on i386 so t

Package: libc6 Version: 2.3.6-7 Severity: normal Hi, Currently the libc6 package on amd64 ships a symlink from /lib64 to /lib (and /usr/lib64). While the symlink is needed for things to work shipping it in the data.tar.gz makes it impossible for any package to put files into /lib64 or /usr/lib64
