However: Do we actually need multilib for anything (other than maybe

installed on my system. The Steam flatpak does not need them at all,
since the freedesktop runtime comes with an i686 multilib extension
that automatically gets pulled in when the Steam flatpak is installed,
obviating the need for any i686 libraries on the host.
please don't, if you can afford to build it somehow (I understand it's serious
work!).
there are still people needing various 32bit/i686 libs and binarys
for debugging old - 32bit only - software, have a look (just an example from one machine,
not complete):
