Dear all, The book allows creation if 32-bit systems as well as 64-bit. However, on 64-bit systems the library directory is still called /usr/lib pointed to from the symlink /usr/lib64.
I case I want a system which can handle mainly 64-bit programs and on occasion a 32-bit program, I need the two libraries separated. This applies of course also for the root based /lib and /lib64 directories. I tried giving the parameter '--libdir=/usr/lib64' to the configure script. But I see at the end of chapter 5, that the 64-bit library was riddled with links to the 32-bit library. This is not a problem as long as it affects only the programs in the /tools directory, but I saw the same at the root. I searched the document, but could not find a way to solve this. Could someone give me a pointer where I might have gone wrong or what else I can/should do?
