I'm attempting to do a clean Gentoo install, based on amd-2005.0 profile.
After unpacking stage3 image (yes, I've downloaded it already

) on an empty partition I prepare to recompile everything, but I get the following:
Code: Select all
# emerge -ave system
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating system dependencies ...done!

Do you want me to merge these packages? [Yes/No]
Of special interest are the lines:
Code: Select all
[ebuild N ] sys-devel/gcc-3.4.3.20050110-r1 (-altivec) -bootstrap -boundschecking -build -debug +fortran -gcj -gtk -hardened (-ip28) (-multilib) -multislot (-n32) (-n64) +nls -nocxx -objc -static (-uclibc) 0 kB
...
[ebuild N ] sys-libs/glibc-2.3.4.20050125-r1 -build -debug -erandom -hardened (-multilib) +nls -nomalloccheck +nptl +nptlonly +pic +userlocales 0 kB
Both
gcc-3.4.3.20050110-r1 and
glibc-2.3.4.20050125-r1 packages have
(-multilib) flag set, so I assume that the system emerged this way WILL NOT have any multilib support. Which I consider pretty bad
I've read somewhere that amd64 arch is going to drop multilib eventually (specificialy the emul* libraries), but I thought it wouldn't be until 2005.1. For now I'm having a system without multilib support for two weeks

(those frequent "emerge --sync" -- you probably know...). And I can't emerge a new one with multilib enabled
Is anyone having similar problem?
Change is the only constant in the universe.
