Re: how to build 32-bit pkgsrc on amd64

Hi Mike & Ryo,

Thanks for the hints! However, if I got right what Coypu wrote, there's no workaround for the win32 USER_LDT issue on amd64 NetBSD. It's good to know anyway that there're easier ways to get 32 bit libs than building everything via pkgsrc. Thanks again!

Best regards,
r0ller

pkg_comp could well be the way to go. Takes a bit of configuration but
I've used it to build packages for quite a few configurations all from a
7-STABLE/amd64 system.

I've done the following:
6.x-STABLE/i386
7.x-STABLE/i386
as well as a couple of different configurations of 7.x STABLE amd64.


It automates the creation of the chroot and the libkver setup for
non-native environments.
