Package: gtk+2.0 Severity: wishlist
The ia32-libs-gtk package for amd64 is built by unpacking i386 packages and moving the contents of /usr/lib to /emul/ia32-linux/usr/lib etc etc before repackaging them in an amd64 deb. However, some components still try to load libraries dynamically from /usr/lib at run-time so they don't work correctly - such as theme engines and probably pixbuf loaders. The ia32-libs-gtk packager could recompile the packages with a different libdir but this could cause them some difficulty making sure they're built with the correct headers etc for ia32. I wondered whether it might be easier to patch the gtk+2.0 package so that if it fails to load a library from a libdir it then tries the corresponding directory in /emul/ia32-linux (or whatever its target arch is). -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26.5 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
