Thanks for this clarification, should this wrapper be in the userland
packages? Should I bug the Debian xfsdump? Anyway, I still would like to
understand which are the reasons for providing a 64 bit kernel: is there
any ip32 system with more than 4Gb of memory? Is 64 bit required for
accessing some hardware stuff? Are there any other reason?
Thanks,
Giuseppe
