Description Nathan Caldwell 2008-12-22 22:05:55 UTC

I was attempting to build Chromium, which requires a 32-bit copy of dev-libs/nss. There isn't one in the emul-linux-x86 packages. So I decided to make multilib ebuilds of it, and it's dependencies.

As there is little in the way of information on the correct way to do multilib ebuilds, please let me know what I'm doing wrong.

Need to address real multilib issues before this can be done up. Not all users
want/need a 32bit lib of nss.

Ditto, bug 252207 comment 5. Re-assigning.

Nutshell: If you want us to test something in the tree, let us know.

packages shouldnt go doing multilib builds themselves.  the options are:
 - integrate it into the mondo emul package amd64 maintains
 - do nothing and wait for proper multilib support to be implemented

www-client/chromium seems to work natively on amd64, or I am missing some kind
of "black magic"? Is this still required by any package in the tree?
