Adding "-m32" to your CFLAGS is a bad idea (tm). See the technotes ( http://amd64.gentoo.org/technotes.xml ). I will mark this bugs as WONTFIX, but i want to explain why i do this: We can't provide all librarys that exist via some emul-x86-linux* package. We don't have enough manpower nor do we have enough space on the mirrors to achieve this. We are currently moving towards portage being able to have dynamic slots. As sonns as this feature works, we will be able to work on a bi-arch system. That means that you will be able to install all the 32 bit libraries and 32 bit packages you want to have via portage. If you need 32bit glut _now_ then please try to create a 32bit chroot environtment for the time being and run your apps there. Sorry for the inconvenience. :-/ |
