I'm now running full amd64 and notice there is no crafty package[1] I
normally compile crafty from source anyway (to get the latest version)
but am getting errors even doing that. On i386 on this exact same
machine it compiled fine.
One of the main reasons I decided to do a full amd64 install was to see
what sort of search improvement I could get.
[1] Thought a package was supposed to compile on all architectures.
