Reversing Multilib
I want to take out the multilib capability for my system. Is it as simple as using "slackpkg clean-system", to remove all the compat32 pkgs, then using "slackpkg upgrade-all" to replace all the gcc and glibc packages?
The reason I ask, is that I only used the multilib to be able to run Google Earth. There are no other x86 packages on the system. I have another x86 computer that will run Google Earth if I need it. It just wasn't worth it for this one package. I am running -current as well. |
Yes, that will work.
Removeing the compat32 packages can also be achieved by running: Code:
removepkg /var/log/packages/*compat32* Eric |
Sorry, it's better "slackpkg install-new", isn't it? If you remove all *compat32* you need to install them, right?
And don't forget to remove gcc-* and glibc-* from blacklist. EDIT: sorry I've read wrong the post. |
Thanks, Eric. That worked very well, and much faster than selecting them all in slackpkg. I probably would have missed some anyway. :)
I rebooted, and all is a go. |
