[Bug 958479] [NEW] Building 32-bit wine on 12.04 amd64 does not work

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Hi,

if you want to build the 32bit version of wine 1.5 on Ubuntu 12.04 64
bit it will fail cause configure can not find the necessary 32 bit
development files.

If you do an ldconfig -p you see why:

libX11.so.6 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libX11.so.6
libX11.so.6 (libc6) => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libX11.so.6
libX11.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libX11.so

So, the libX11.so library is announced ONLY as a 64bit version.
BUT, the 32-bit version is also installed (libX11.so.6 (libc6) but there is no symlink to libX11.so avalible for it.

This hapens for a huge amount of libraries.
It will be a huge pita to manually build 32-bit apps in 12.04 if this does not change !

Please fix this strange issue.

Many thanks,
Christian
