Hi! The presence of the linux32 package (installed by default on x86_64) causes issues including not behaving well with elements of the GNOME desktop [bnc#841070], but also more invasive ones such as [bnc#435538]. I request the consideration of dropping the package altogether from Factory if there is no reasonable use case which justifies otherwise. If this cannot be done because people do use this package, might I suggest removing it from the default patterns* and hiding the .desktop menu item from the applications menu (as promised in bnc#408320, then somehow reverted), in the least?
linux32 is a simple shell script that is quite usefull for some development and debugging work. If it causes issues in Gnome, then something is wrong in Gnome.
Let's fix the desktop files instead of dropping linux32,

Hi, afaicr, KIWI is also using something called 'linux32', it used for building 32bit system on a 64bit machine. If it _is_ the same package, Marcus and his team will be in for a bitter surprise if it will be dropped... (not to mention the studio-group).
