Re: g++-multilib omissions

Those are non-multilib arches I think you want to use
g++-aarch64-linux-gnu and g++-powerpc64le-linux-gnu without any 
switches (ie. without -m64 or anything like that), which is available 
on "developy" amd64/i386/ppc64le architectures. Would that be enough 
for your use cases?


Thanks for your insight, Dimitri; it prompted me to rethink things, and 
instead I have managed to fix the project I was attempting to compile to 
not attempt to install the g++-multilib package on those architectures. 
This fixes my build on the launchpad buildd - I'm building snap packages 
which were failing to build for those architectures because of trying to 
install g++-multilib. Specifically it's the "snapcraft-preload" [1] 
project by Sergio (sergiusens) that was breaking things for me :-)


I've filed a PR to the snapcraft-preload project now on github [2]

Thanks,
Dan.
