The ia32-libs-tools package introduced new or modified debconf templates. This is the perfect moment for a review to help the package maintainer following the general suggested writing style and track down typos and errors in the use of English language. If someone wants to pick up this review, please answer to this mail, in the mailing list, with an [ITR] (Intent To Review) label. The templates file is attached. To propose the file you reviewed for peer review, please send a [RFR] (Request For Review) mail with the reviewed file attached...then a few days later, when no more contributions come, a summary mail with a [LCFC] (Last Chance For Comments) label. Finally, after no more comments coming to the LCFC mail, you can send the reviewed templates file as a bug report against the package. Then, please notify the list with a last mail using a [BTS] label with the bug number. Helping the package maintainer to deal with induced translation updates at that moment will be nice. If you're not comfortable with that part of the process, please hand it off to a translator. --
Template: ia32-apt-get/allowed-packages Type: select Choices: None, Libraries, All Default: Libraries _Description: What 32bit packages do you want to use? Ia32-apt-get inserts itself into the Debian package management rather intrusively if you let it. But you can limit the amount of damage it might do. . Selecting 'None' will disable ia32-apt-get alltogether and leave the Debian package management alone. Don't complain if 32bit support is broken under this option. . Selecting 'Libraries' is the safe option alowing only 32bit libraries to be installed. You can recognize them by having a prefix of 'ia32-' in their name. . Selection 'All' will also make 32bit binaries available allowing you to for example install a 32bit gzip instead of a 64bit gzip. You also need this option if you want to be able to install 3rd party binaries like skype with apt-get, aptitude, synaptic, ... If you choose this make sure to add entries to /etc/apt/preferences as describes in /usr/share/doc/ia32-apt-get/README.Debian.gz to ensure the default is always a 64bit package when available. Template: ia32-apt-get/undo-old-sources-list Type: boolean _Description: Restore /etc/apt/sources.list from /etc/apt/native/sources.list? Prior to version 15 ia32-apt-get moved your /etc/apt/sources.list into /etc/apt/native/sources.list and created a new /etc/apt/sources.list containing entries for the native architecture and i386. You do have a /etc/apt/native/sources.list and it is strongly recommended to let ia32-apt-get undo that now. . This will overwrite your current /etc/apt/sources.list with whatever is in /etc/apt/native/sources.list.

For that to work with dynamically linked binaries the required 32bit libraries need to be available as well. This package contains tools to convert native i386 binary packages for use under amd64 or ia64. Package: ia32-archive Architecture: all Depends: ${misc:Depends}, adduser, dctrl-tools | grep-dctrl, reprepro, ia32-libs-tools (>= 16), wget Description: Create a local archive of converted i386 debs for amd64 and ia64 On amd64 and ia64 the kernel is capable of executing i386 binaries. For that to work with dynamically linked binaries the required 32bit libraries need to be available as well. This package contains the infrastructure to maintain a local archive of converted packages that will automatically track a source repository. Package: ia32-apt-get Architecture: all Depends: ${misc:Depends}, ${shlibs:Depends}, ia32-libs-tools (>= 16), debconf (>= 0.5) Description: Apt-get and dpkg wrapper for on-the-fly ia32-libs conversion On amd64 and ia64 the kernel is capable of executing i386 binaries. For that to work with dynamically linked binaries the required 32bit libraries need to be available as well. This package contains wrappers for apt-get and dpkg that will enable you to install i386 packages and convert them as they are being installed. Package: ia32-libs Architecture: amd64 ia64 Section: libs Priority: optional Depends: ${misc:Depends}, ia32-apt-get (>= 15) Description: ia32 shared libraries for use on amd64 and ia64 systems This is a transitional package that depends on a set of core libraries for the ia32/i386 architecture, configured for use on an amd64 or ia64 Debian system running a 64-bit kernel. . This is just a dummy package, part one of the transition, that will be replaced once ia32-apt-get is installed. You need to run apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade again to get part two. Package: ia32-libs-gtk Architecture: amd64 ia64 Section: libs Priority: optional Depends: ${misc:Depends}, ia32-apt-get (>= 15) Description: ia32 shared libraries for use on amd64 and ia64 systems This is a transitional package that depends on a set of extra libraries for the ia32/i386 architecture, configured for use on an amd64 or ia64 Debian system running a 64-bit kernel. Most notably, but not exclusively, GTK+ libraries. . This is just a dummy package, part one of the transition, that will be replaced once ia32-apt-get is installed. You need to run apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade again to get part two.
