switch from no-multilib profile back to normal

[gaelic]

Hello

I wanted to sitch back from a pure 64bit system to multilib an ran into following problem:

gaelic,

Key system libraries are installed in different places between no-multilib and the default (multilib) set up.
Multilib actually gives you two sets of these libs, one 32 bit and the other 64 bit.

To do the switch, you need to get both sets of libs installed in the right places before your switch.
I'm not aware of a howto on the topic but it sounds like a mess. A reinstall is recommended.

Hi.

Thanks, thought it would be kind of not possible to switch from a non-multilib system to a multilib-system.
Maybe I'll give it a try with binpkgs and an emerge -e world ...
