Feature changed by: Jan Engelhardt (jengelh) Feature #308372, revision 3 Title: lib→lib32; lib64→lib openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Matt Williams (milliams) Description: Now that 64 bit machines are almost ubiquitous, how about we make openSUSE treat 64 bit libraries as the default. This is already seen in the fact that in the buld service we have default packages and then 32 bitt packages are explicitly labeled as so. I propose: * Place all 32 bit libraries in directories called lib32 (e.g. /usr/lib32 ) * Place all 64 bit libraries in directories called lib (e.g. /usr/lib ) + Discussion: + #1: Jan Engelhardt (jengelh) (2009-12-05 13:25:32) + No. "lib" is hardcoded in every binary, so it has to remain the + "directory of former bitness" for all architectures. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308372
