Comment 17 for bug 1300211

Matthias: "Otoh, I don't understand why you would need gcc-multilib and other cross compilers at the same time."

Not to be a smart-alec, but... so that we can compile for x86_32, x86_64, and ARM on the same system.

I've just run into this as well while updating build servers from 12.x to 15.x. Is there another way to install all 3 toolchains simultaneously, without including gcc-multilib?

Right now i'm trying Jans method in comment #14, however I'd prefer a method that didn't require manual upgrades.

This was the entire reason we switched to Ubuntu - the strong cross-compiler support.
