Slackware64 multilib

Upgraded to Slackware 14, installed almost all software needed from slackbuilds.org and now is time for some final adjustments: making the system multilib. The reason is that I like to play StarCraft for the old days’ sake :)
So, following AlienBob’s instructions:

mkdir compat32
cd compat32
lftp -c 'open http://taper.alienbase.nl/mirrors/people/alien/multilib/; mirror 14.0'
cd 14.0
upgradepkg --reinstall --install-new *.t?z
cd slackware64-compat32
upgradepkg --install-new *-compat32/*.t?z

Now, make sure all AlienBob’s compat32 packages are blacklisted in /etc/slackpkg/blacklist, by adding [0-9]+compat32, so they are not removed by slackpkg.

EDIT (09 May 2015): like this

#[0-9]+compat32

gcc-*
glibc-*

Now, compile wine :)
