can confirm the last phrase, tried now on current64 with an additional mpg123-compat32 (made with convert script from compat32-tools) and wine 1.1.41 builds with mp3 support (I used a slightly modified alien bob's slackbuild).
It would be nice to have it in the default massconvert compat32 set.
I just ran the new massconvert.sh and it created two folders ./compatibility and ./libraries (which has the /a /ap subdirectories) but all the files are in ../32-bit
I installed my latest compat32-tools (version "21alien"), ran the massconvert utility on a slackware-current tree and that produced the expected set of "-compat32" subdirectories with all the converted packages. No weird-looking directories.
I then ran the same script against a source of Slackware-13.0 packages and the result was the same as before (except of course for some packages not being created - like mpg123 - because they were not yet available in Slackware 13.0).
I installed my latest compat32-tools (version "21alien"), ran the massconvert utility on a slackware-current tree and that produced the expected set of "-compat32" subdirectories with all the converted packages. No weird-looking directories.
cd /home/samac/Slackware/32-bit\ compatibility\ libraries
massconvert32.sh -i ../Slackware-current/slackware-current/slackware/ -d .
this results in /compatibilty and /libraries created in the /32-bit compatibility libraries folder. /libraries contains the /a-compat32 etc.
Libraries are actually created in ../32-bit
Renaming the folder to /32-bit-compatibility-libraries fixes the problem.
sorry if I bump again, but just to say I tried wine 1.1.42 and it needs a newer mpg123 to build with mp3 support: I have built some packages from the original slackware's slackbuilds and created a -compat32- package waiting for an official update.
another thing related to multilib (don't know really if it needs a new topic): at home and at work I have a double slackware64-current multilib setup on multiple core machines so I gave a shot to icecream and gotta say it's fine
but building 32bit apps like wine didn't go through icecream and I had to change a line in /usr/bin/32/gcc (probably not the best solution) on both hosts to fix it
Code:
# Now find the "real" gcc
#REALCC=$(PATH="$(echo $PATH | sed "s#\(.*\):\?$STUBPATH/\?:\?#\1#")" which $(basename $0))
REALCC=/opt/icecream/bin/gcc
Distribution: Slackware64-current with "True Multilib" and KDE4Town.

You can grab the wine.SlackBuild and create a package yourself with mp3 support on Slackware-current of course (if you are running that).

Eric,
Do your WINE builds now have mp3 support?
Thanks.
