I don’t have such a choice. If I have mesa and nvidia-current installed on x86_64, I can configure the x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf alternative, but the only alternative available for i386-linux-gnu_gl_conf is /usr/lib /nvidia-current/ld.so.conf. An alternative with only one option is not configurable. So I cannot prevent /usr/lib/nvidia-current and /usr/lib32/nvidia-current from being added to the linker path. I’d be more okay with this if nvidia-current’s i386-linux-gnu_gl_conf pointed to a file that only has the 32-bit library locations, but right now it has both 32-bit and 64-bit library locations. > Unfortunately I don't have access to my > workstation to show you the exact error but I'm available to do so next > week when I'm back home, if you're interested. Hmm, I am a little interested. Under normal circumstances it should be totally fine to have several alternatives pointing to the same file: $ ls -l /etc/alternatives/ | grep flashplugin lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 58 2011-06-24 17:15 firefox-flashplugin -> /var/lib/flashplugin-installer/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 58 2011-06-15 16:06 iceape-flashplugin -> /var/lib/flashplugin-installer/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 58 2011-06-15 16:06 iceweasel-flashplugin -> /var/lib/flashplugin-installer/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 58 2011-06-15 16:06 midbrowser-flashplugin -> /var/lib/flashplugin-installer/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 58 2011-06-24 17:15 mozilla-flashplugin -> /var/lib/flashplugin-installer/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 58 2011-06-15 16:06 xulrunner-addons-flashplugin -> /var/lib/flashplugin-installer/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 58 2011-06-15 16:06 xulrunner-flashplugin -> /var/lib/flashplugin-installer/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/798049 Title: nvidia-* and fglrx need to be migrated to per-architecture gl_conf alternative To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/798049/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
