Hmm but what if I need to have linux 32bit emulation (for
opera)
AND linux 64bit emulation? USE_COMPAT_LINUX32 won't let me
install
both.
I think the best solution is to have separate packages for
the
suse ones, but based on the same base. Also, the current
ones are
installing suse-32bit if you are running i386, and
suse-64bit
if running amd64. Wouldn't it be best to have the current
suse
packages install only suse-32bit, and to add new packages
for
suse-64bit?
