Fedora 7: lib64 directories
Hi,
I have installed Fedora 7 on a 64-bit cpu.
I noticed that Fedora has both /usr/lib and /usr/lib64.
1. Is this only on Fedora or standard across many Linux distros?
2. Technically why is this needed, can it be just solved with having all
the 64-bit libs in /usr/lib?
3. Also if I have a 64-bit cpu that is not capable of supporting IA32 will
then only /usr/lib exist?
4. Also does this mean that a lot of installed packages are still 32-bit?
Thanks
Shams
