Hi, we would like to get rid of the gcc-multilib package. That goes in hand with removing support for -m32. For this package, I am questioning the usefulness of a multilib build. The emitted shared objects need to be loaded into an Xorg server and necessarily that server has to be 32bit. I hope I'm not missing something here, but then you already need to enable i386 as a foreign (or native) architecture and can very well just install the xserver-xorg-video-geode:i386 package. Thus the benefit of having a xserver-xorg-video-geode:amd64 or :x32 package is not substantial while at the same time it prevents us from removing gcc-multilib and libc6-i386. Do you agree with this reasoning? If yes, please consider applying the attached patch. Helmut
