When are major Windows ISVs going to finally get off 32 bit platforms ???
The steam client is 32 bit, and requires 99 32 bit multilib rpms on my
system. I really don't want to junk up my system like that.
You have to install the same ones for Skype/etc, anyway...
I wouldn't call it "junk" - it's just the same open sourced libraries
you already have installed but in x86 build. Yes, they take up some
extra space on the drive - but not all that much!
