hmm, good point. I hadn't considered abi_x86_32 since I gave up on |
| 25 |
WINE and Skype. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
The motivation section that started this thread especially called out |
| 28 |
the openssl/libressl thing as the terrible thing and that's why I |
| 29 |
thought this would be much easier to just solve with virtuals. |
| 30 |
Thinking harder about things like python_targets_python2_7 (trying to |
| 31 |
go py3 clean except on packages that won't is a *drag*) and |
| 32 |
abi_x86_32, this thread has a point. |
