_ [debian] multiarch

フリーズまでの時間は短いが、Debian Projectはいくつかの大きなゴールを達成できることを期待している。最も重要なのは、multi-archサポート(64ビットマシン環境で32 ビット版パッケージのインストールができるように改良する)と、起動プロセスの最適化(高速化と高信頼性)だ。

Although the next freeze is only a short time away, the Debian project hopes to achieve several prominent goals with it. The most important are multi-arch support, which will improve the installation of 32 bit packages on 64 bit machines, and an optimised boot process for better boot performance and reliability.

Integrate support for cross-architecture installation of binary packages (particularly i386<->amd64, but also other combinations) in dpkg and apt.
