(due to my perpetual lack of time).
I meant starting with R14 :-)
I've never heard of something requiring multilib, nor should it if
it's
build on x86, since anything compiled on there is
basically "monolib"
anyway.
The way they did the libturbo packages ensures that they won't build on
anything less than oneiric. All I know is that it relies on the
/usr/lib-<archname>/ structure.
If that's just the Ubuntu package of libjpeg-turbo (not the normal
libjpeg-turbo), that makes more sense. I've seen quite a few things in
Ubuntu where I couldn't figure out their reasoning.
