We also could have it with both platforms enabled: For example, on a x86_64 linux system that supports both 64-bit and 32-bit executables, you might specify --with-boinc-platform=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu and --with-boinc-alt-platform=i686-pc-linux-gnu. Just not sure whether it could be of any use, as even if some BOINC projects still have 32-bit executables, they are very likely to have 64-bit ones too, which perform better. And whether Linuxulator subsystem would be able to run 32 bit Linux executables? What else could we do with it: some kind of platform autodetection? Or manual selection via Makefile flags? This patch is just a simplest working solution, but what could the best one look like? Created attachment 243858 [details]

Created attachment 243618 [details] Trivial patch As most computers with BOINC clients are running on x86_64 nowadays
