aryvandaar Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 I have a pure 64-bit system with no emul packages. So I can install skype without having to install emul packages now? Cool. Nice fix seeing that the skype team can't even make a 64-bit application (haha). :) Thanks a lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oleg Vinichenko Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Unfortunately, no. pure64 is special kind that is purely 64 bit, not possible to install 32-bit applications. The only possible way is to utilize kernel 32-bit emulation (CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION) and using 32-bit chroot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aryvandaar Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 I might've been confusing terms, was a bit tired yesterday. I don't have a pure64 profile enabled. I have masked emul packages and set 64 bit flags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
