Cross compiling simple pcap example

[Kent Kvarfordt]

Ok.  So even though the libraries are dynamically linked shared object
libraries (.so), the 32-bit versions need to be present during the
compile/link phase on the 64-bit installation?

The reason I ask is that the application I am trying to cross compile
actually has several incompatible library errors.  I was using the
pcap example as a boiled down example for posting.  Is there a way to
compile the application on the 64-bit installation w/out installing
32-bit versions, so the 32-bit libraries are resolved at runtime on
the 32-bit installation?

Thanks for all the replies.
