ArchLinux and its alleged difficulties
I've made a quick WEB search regarding ArchLinux and it looks to me there is nothing specially difficult about it - <<mod edit:For example, the learning curve with libraries.>>

Actual packages: http://www.archlinux.org/packages/ -> http://www.archlinux.org/packages/?s...gged=&limit=50 -> http://www.archlinux.org/packages/co...4/lib32-glibc/ : Quote:

File list of 'lib32-glibc': http://www.archlinux.org/packages/co...4/lib32-glibc/ - as it should be. ... Had to build 'xz', now that I've downloaded and unpacked http://www.lividpenguin.lkams.kernel...686.pkg.tar.xz , I can confirm that, for example, Code:
file /home/sergei/junk/glibc-2.11.1-2-i686/lib/libresolv-2.11.1.so So, as I see it, there should be no more difficulties in building 32 bit applications under ArchLinux than under any other Linux. |
I would not understand where this idea would come from. Arch Linux actually encourages compilation with its ABS system:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Build_System I would agree that building on Arch is little different than on any other system. |

Sergei;
Normally, it's best to avoid references to specific members--especially when there has been friction in the past. thanks |
