Bug#618033: AW: Bug#618033: texlive-bin-2009: Missing -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 leads to files not opening (x86 /32bit)
Dear Hilmar,
Sorry I do not know if that bug still exists. I am not using a cifs mounted file system any more.
Sincerely yours
Pierre

Hi Pierre,
I'm going through some old bugs, checking for validity.
https://bugs.debian.org/618033
We did some efforts on x86 back in 2011, but later we found out that TeX Live is not ready for LFS support on 32bit. Is this bug still valid or has it gone obsolete by phasing out 32bit architecture on PC market?
