I've been trying to get myself to use autotools-utils more often lately, |
| 10 |
especially since I think at this point, with multilib support easier to |
| 11 |
wire in it than others, it would be the right way to proceed with (it's |
| 12 |
going to be a ruddy mess with orthogonal ABIs such as Ruby's but I don't |
| 13 |
want to go there right now). |

The only thing that would upset me in all of this is something that is |
| 16 |
unfortunately needed for multilib builds to not be completely idiotic, |
| 17 |
and that is the out-of-source builds. I had to fix one package for that |
| 18 |
already (lksctp-tools). |

On the other hand I usually fixed that stuff anyway because I use |
| 21 |
out-of-source builds when I'm developing them so... |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Btw, I know I've been more than rough on Michał before, so I guess I'd |
| 24 |
better say this out loud: I really like his roadmap toward multilib |
| 25 |
support. Kudos! |
