Overview

Multilibpkg is an automated tool for managing (installing, upgrading, and uninstalling) of 64-bit part of AlienBob's multilib for slackware-64.

The 64-bit part of the multilib is a subset of packages which allows to turn a pure 64-bit slackware-64 into a multilib slackware-64. This subset is provided by multilib's version of packages glibc-solibs, glibc, glibc-i18n, glibc-profile, glibc-zoneinfo, gcc, gcc-g++, gcc-gfortran, gcc-gnat, gcc-java, gcc-obj, and, by the additional package compat32-tools which provides tools related to 32-bit compatibility layer.

To learn more about multilibpkg, look at his documentation here, and, if this tools fits your need you can download the latest version right away here.

As multilibpkg is dedicated to the management of the 64-bit part of the multilib, it can't be used to manage the 32-bit part of the multilib (ie: 32-bit compatibility layer). For the management of this layer, users might use multilibpkg's little brother : compat32pkg.
