README for bi-architecture 64 bit platforms users
=================================================
Current version of GTK+ has a problem running 32 and 64 version on
single machine. See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=129540 and
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153848 for more information.
To work around this problem, 64 bit version for SUSE Linux uses special
names for following files:
/usr/bin/gtk-query-immodules-2.0: /usr/bin/gtk-query-immodules-2.0-64
/etc/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules: /usr/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules64
And following variable:
$GTK_PATH: $GTK_PATH64
This can cause problems during self-compilation of packages.
To work-around these problems (introduced by this work-around), you
should:
Either:
- Make a patch of package (please do not send it to package
developers, it's temporary solution).
Or:
- Install 32 bit version of GTK+.
These problems should be correctly solved in GTK+ sometimes in future.
