Try this perhaps: |
38 |
|
39 |
for EMUL in $(eix -I --only-names emul-linux); do equery depends $EMUL; done |
40 |
|
41 |
unmerge them and the run 'emerge @preserved-rebuild'. Portage will then tell |
42 |
you which 32bit packages you will need to add in your package.use file with |
43 |
the 32 bit ABI flag. |
