Afaiui multilib and cross-compiling work differently and you wanted multilib, not cross compiling. But my understanding of this area is almost non-existing. If you wanted to cross compile for amd64 on i386 you would set --build i486-linux-gnu --host x86_64-linux-gnu and this would cause ./configure to use amd64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc as compiler. > Second: Why does it build on ppc ? No idea. :-( cu and- not getting the point of 64bit alsa on i486 anyway. - reas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin.
