Something that is on my TO-DO list but is likely never to get done, is to create a bi-arch
Debian package of jackd and a couple of its dependencies. Then, one may build and run
ChucK or SClang using 32-bit libjack, without a chroot.
This is how many non-64-bit-safe programs run today.
$ find /usr/lib32/ -type f | wc -l
714
So, on my Intel Core 2 Duo Debian Sid system, roughly 714 libraries have 32-bit alternate
versions, for use by apps that are not 64-bit safe. This is a tiny percentage compared to
the 64-bit libraries, by the way:
$ find /usr/lib64/ -type f | wc -l
13443
But, I'd propose that a simultaneous installation of 64-bit and 32-bit versions of
libjack, each in their appropriate location in /usr/lib32 and /usr/lib64, would be cleaner
and more transparent for the user than creating chroots and such.

Maybe someday, but it's hard and has not been high-priority. On Sat Jun 16, 2007 at 10:30:48PM -0400, Brett W.

not with the hardware. with the software, the VM based scientific
audio stuff tends to be broken - at least SCLang, PD, and Chuck. not
sure about CSound. so if youre into that stuff, youll need a 32bit
chroot. or you could control scserver from haskell or scheme... -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
