Debian provides the 32 bit libraries but it is not possible to install
them side by side with the 64 bit versions, so trying to install them
results in removing every 64 bit package that depends on the 64 bit
version, in my case around 60 packages including programs I use daily.

One last question regarding winegstreamer, I'm slowly following some
tutorials to understand how gstreamer works but in Wine I can't find
where the decompressed frame data is, I suppose somewhere there should
be a frame that is then displayed in the screen and I believe it will
take like 99 quartz calls to make that happen.

Thanks,
