However it can't automatically cross compile 32-bit dependencies. If it tries to build a `-32bit` package in a 64bit environment it will just make a 64bit package. You have to cross compile all the 32-bit dependencies beforehand. Thus it requires precompiled 32bit dependencies in order to work which is not optimal.

Thanks for the tip! But the Steam package depends on 32-bit libraries, and Steam works on 64-bit with 32-bit libraries.
