No, you can not run 32 bit code in a 64 bit environment. You have to use emulated software, check out net-www/nspluginwrapper to get plugins working for Firefox
Hi all.
I'm sure this question must have been answered before, but I am slowly
giving up on finding the solution after months of browsing.
Anyways, is it possible to emerge the same package in parallel? As
32-bit and 64-bit version?
Something in the lines of:
ABI="amd64,x86" emerge libxml2
or:
emerge libxml2
ABI="x86" emerge
--some-option-to-ignore-already-installed-package-and-not-remove-it
libxml2
Namely, I am trying to compile openoffice (using ABI="x86") and some GTK themes.
openoffice depends one some packages (libxml2, libz, ...) that need
therefore need to exist in 32-bit and I'd like to have firefox (...and
other 32bit apps) themed not just with themes that come with emul-*
packages.
Thank you for your replies,
Boky
