That's another point we wanted to discuss. Can anyone tell us if there's actually some point in providing lib64* packages /at all/? Should we drop them? If we should drop them, what is lib64z1, lib64ncurses, lib64readline5 and so on good for? The building of these packages came with the original biarch patch that was contributed ages ago.
