At runtime how does the app know to use the 32 bit version of the library if the library has the same name.
Dunno. They do, though, at least as far as my experience goes. Seems the 32-bit app will silently ignore 64-bit libraries and continue searching through the ld library path 'til it finds what it needs. If you've installed libraries into a directory in your home, and you have the path to the libraries in your ld.so.conf, your 32-bit app should find them.
How and where do you install the libraries into the real system.
Install the libraries to your chroot environment. I have a directory in my home called crux-i686. I chroot there and build and install packages normally. Jeremy
