Most packages come with 32bit compatibility packages which you can
optionally install. Same goes for the compiler. i.E. I only got a GPS for
32bit and that works fine.

You can use linux32 to force an application as 32bit:

/work/rpm/SCRIPTS  Linux  martin@linux2  Mi Mï¿œr 15 18:53:00  standart

The 32bit GPS nags me of course and I regularly try to compile a native
64bit GPS.
