How to compile multilib packages using xbps-src?

[gc-user]

I'm trying to compile the util-linux / util-linux-common packages.

The usual "way" ./xbps-src pkg util-linux util-linux-common only compiles the "64bit version" of the packages, but those don't seem to be enough for install on my system. So I'm trying to compile the "-32bit" packages as well.

Using ./xbps-src pkg libuuid-32bit libmount-32bit libblkid-32bit worked exactly one time (i.e. building -32bit packages, creating a multilib directory in /hostdir/binpkgs and putting the -32bit packages in there). But as I used revision of "0" and only later on realized that a revision of at least "1" is hard coded into the templates I couldn't install those packages.

No biggy (or so I thought). Changing the revision to "1" and recompiling anytime after that first time (and even going back to revision "0", just to check), results only in the 64bit packages being compiled, even with only ./xbps-src pkg libuuid-32bit libmount-32bit libblkid-32bit used as command.

I have no clue why it worked one time, but now it doesn't anymore.

Even creating a new master directory with complete new binary-bootstrap doesn't help.

So, I'm out of ideas to test how to finally get those packages built.

(Note: I'm using the bash history for the commands, so the commands didn't change over the course of the many tries.)

Build packages for i686, the -32bit packages will be generated out of the i686 packages:

./xbps-src -A i686 binary-bootstrap
./xbps-src -A i686 pkg util-linux

OMG!

Thanks for solving the mystery!
That's what I was doing at first, but thought that ("i686") doesn't seem right, as I only noticed the i686 files, not the multilib sub-directory. So that's where those files were coming from!
As the next thing after that was the second command of my initial post, I was assuming that it was creating those files!

I was already questing the integrity of my system... :-)

Thank you very much!
