The typical user could care less, but some may want to be able to cross-compile for an amd64 on a x86 system. This will install the extra symlinks ('x86_64') to facilitate this process. +.TP +\fB\-\-arm\fR +The arm architecture comes in both big and little endian versions. Typically +you only need support for the native target, but sometimes it's helpful to +have links for the other endian target. This will make sure you have both the +big endian target ('armeb') and the little endian target ('arm'). +.TP +\fB\-\-mips\fR +The mips architecture (like arm) comes in both big and little endian versions. +Typically you only need support for the native target, but sometimes it's +helpful to have links for the other endian target.
