Default Problem with 32bit Linux emul on a 64bit OS

I'm running NetBSD 7.0 (amd64). Having installed lots of different packages I noticed that some of them brought in 32 bit linux emulation (suse32-* packages). It prevents programs that require Linux layer, compiled from pkgsrc or pkgsrc-wip (like Skype) from counteracting with 64bit libraries, found otherwise in the system. I corrected respective record in /etc/fstab

Code:
procfs		/usr/pkg/emul/linux32/proc
to
Code:
procfs		/usr/pkg/emul/linux/proc
but it didn't help. When I f.ex. run Skype, I get the following error, which is clearly signaling discrepancy between 32 and 64 binaries:

Code:
bash-4.3$ skype
/usr/pkg/share/skype/skype: error while loading shared libraries: libgstapp-0.10.so.0: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
How can I get rid of that 32bit emulation (and how did I get it at all, installing everything 64 bit)?

Depending on how well the NetBSD package manager works you could remove one of the core suse32 packages and then run # pkgin autoremove to delete the orphaned dependencies.

The other thing to try is to search your installed packages for "bin"s (binary).
$ pkgin list | grep bin should parse out linux binary packages.

libreoffice4-bin will pull in linux emulation.

Default emulation linux 32

Skype needs linux 32 emulation. See
HTML Code:
http://pkgsrc.se/wip/skype4
At least you need suse_131_32_gstreamer, which provides libgstapp-0.10.so.0. And maybe several more suse 32 emulation packages.

I am not sure, but why cannot the two procfs lines you posted be together in /etc/fstab?

The fact that you are running an amd64 system doesn't mean that you don't need linux 32 emulation for an specific application.

Yes, I do have the whole bunch of suse_32 packages, but I still get that error. I don't have "suse_131_32_gstreamer" but I have "suse32_gstreamer-13.1nb2" it refers to. Seems that this 32 vs. 64 thing is not very well working for that package.

P.S. The library file libgstapp-0.10.so.0 was 64bit indeed. I replaced it with a 32 bit one from pkgsrc directory and the load process went on. However, it stopped at this stage:

Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "gnomebreakpad"

... but that's already another story...

Could you tell me the result of running:
Code:
pkgfind -P libgstapp

Skype won't work as it is. You need to upgrade the futex subsystem in linux_compat(8).

Upgrde = do devel work.

OK, I've already put up with the fact that Skype won't be working, it always starts with a crash. Upgrading the futex subsystem is something beyond my skills, but would love to read more about it.
