Bruce already responded, but as a side note, you can use /lib32 and /usr/lib32 for 32bit libraries on 64bit OS where /lib64 /usr/lib64 is symlink to /lib and /usr/lib respectively. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
