you can not change on the fly. going from no-multilib to multilib means re- |
| 12 |
installation. |
| 13 |
no-multilib is meant for the very brave or people who know exactly that they |
| 14 |
never need 32bit apps on that box. |

Your manpages will take up more space then those few 32bit emul libs that |
| 17 |
might or not be installed. So there is no downside going multilib. |
