Our multilib policy is to only add stuff that we actually need. So, what do we need lib32-libmikmod for?

Oh right, I didn't know that, sorry. I had assumed it was just like with [community], popular packages etc. and it has 102 votes. It's required by some SDL stuff, but that's also in AUR. So, it's no problem, I just wanted to keep the masses happy, but I'm equally as happy to keep it in the AUR given the policy. Pete.

No, I'd like to keep multilib as small as possible.

Don't be too quick here - "SDL stuff" may (or may not) be useful for closed-source 32-bit-only games. This means we might still do it, can you give me more details what we need it for? We do have lib32-sdl in multilib, and most games seem okay with that.

Sounds sensible.

Okay. More specifically, according to the AUR deps, lib32-libmikmod is required for: lib32-sdl_sound In the AUR, low votes. Doesn't appear to have anything requiring it. lib32-sdl_mixer In the AUR, 93 votes. Required by two games: bin32-srb2 and tecnoballz - both have low votes. tecnoballz In the AUR, low votes - actually source is also available for this, so I don't know why it requires multilib at all... will investigate. It seems odd to me that the lib32-sdl_mixer and lib32-libmikmod have so many votes, when they aren't required by anything particularly popular. Perhaps 32- bit only games without PKGBUILDS require them to be installed on the system? What do you think? Pete.

Any thoughts on this? Should we just forget it? (Though it seems to me that 100 odd votes each should count for something). Pete.

I have no idea, and it seems reasonable to add these packages. What do the others think? I don't object to adding them, but I also have no strong argument in favor. In any case, I have added you to the group.

I think it would make a fine addition. That many votes shouldn't be disregarded just like that. -- Sven-Hendrik

lib32-sdl_sound In the AUR, low votes. Doesn't appear to have anything requiring it.
Hi, I'm the maintainer of this package and I revived it in order to compile the emulators Raine and NeoRaine on 64-bit systems. The dependency does not appear in the web interface though, I suppose it only takes the 32-bit dependencies into account.

Status? If lib32-libmikmod isn't going to be added in the multilib repo, then the lib32-libmikmod/repos/multilib-x86_64 directory should be removed from the svn. Otherwise, it cause a mismatch between the svn and the db.

Apologies - I totally forgot about this. Now added. Pete.
