Package: gcc, ia32-libs
Version: 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21)
I am getting the oft-reported "skipping incompatible /usr/bin/../lib/ libc.a when searching for -lc" problem when trying to compile 32 bit binaries on a 64-bit machine. However, I have tried all of the usual fixes and none of them work. In particular, gcc seems to be ignoring my -L flag:

You have to install gcc-4.3-multilib to get those libraries. No need to
use -L/usr/lib32.
