------- Additional Comments From rbachl@web.de 2006-18-04 20:20 ------- Thanks, I am learning. I have checked that Wine is a 32 bit executable using 32 bit libraries. I am new to this, so I do not know how this is done with the 64 bit compiler that is installed, and I will have a closer look at the make files. I am using the Gentoo ebuild packages without any modifications.
That still leaves me with the problem of creating the 32 bit libxml2 library and whatever other library there may be missing in a 64 bit Linux system. Can somebody point me to any documentation (1) what 32 bit libraries to install and (2) how to compile the 32 bit libraries in a 64 bit system? Do I really have to set up a 32 bit environment (chroot?) for that?
I realize that this is not a bug and any discussion on that topic may be better placed in a discussuion forum. However, I wonder if I am the only person encountering these problems? Maybe there could be some Section in the documentation and/or a FAQ entry on that topic? Thank you.
