It would be much easier to discover why you might need some 32 bit
libraries.
For instance, you mentioned SDL. Is there an app you have that is not
in rpm format that requires 32 bit libs?
Perhaps you have a 32 bit app in rpm format.
Simply:
# yum localinstall --nogpgcheck <myprog>.rpm
That will install all of the appropriate 32 bit libs for that app.
Much better than just trying to grab all 32 bit libs and hope it works ...
If someone wants to run a nightly version of Thunderbird (say
3.1.1pre) in 64 bit F13 where the nightly builds are only for 32 bit -
then it is not so easy!
If you can give a one line command to pull in all the correct 32 bit
libraries needed for that scenario I would be most interested in
seeing it.
