Comment (by nphilipp):

 Replying to [comment:3 notting]:
 > If it's important for us to fix it so 32-bit apps can have drivers with
 the libraries, why is it important for spins to be able to have libraries
 without the drivers?

 This is the reason that was given to me in the first place: "For things
 like Netbooks, OLPC XOs, and ARM based devices such as tablets this helps
 reduce the size quite a bit, and now that colord links against sane-
 backends-libs it ends up pulling in quite a bit of size which in a lot of
 cases we have < 4GB of space so even 20 meg here and there adds up."

 I didn't think of the multiarch angle at that time (obviously) and even if
 I did I wouldn't have thought it is so complicated to get this in place --
 IMO something like that should be done as a change to a configuration
 file, not source code.
