[Pkg-ia32-libs-maintainers] Bug#618538: ia32-libs-gtk: All 64bit applications load gtk from lib32 and can not load libcanberra-gtk-module

[luke]

Package: ia32-libs-gtk
Version: 20120102
Followup-For: Bug #618538

Dear Maintainer,

I have 64bit debian testing installed on my laptop. I export GTK_PATH=/usr/lib32/gtk-2.0
and then 32bit firefox works well.

However, other 64bit applications installed from official mirror always claimed "cannot load libcanberrar-gtk-module" without error information. 
Besides, those 64bit applications also warned that "Gtk-WARNING **: /usr/lib32/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libclearlooks.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32".

Even when I typed reportbug in gnome-terminal, the above warning was shown as well. No 64bit apps can avoid this.
If I backuped the lib32 gtk modules and copied the 64bit modules from /usr/lib/x86_64.../gtk-2.0/... to /usr/lib32/gtk-2.0, then 64bit apps worked, but 32bit firefox did not work!

I don't know why 64bit apps would find the module from lib32?
