Description:

32-bit libGL libraries for the nvidia driver (in testing) are missing the symbol `__glXGLLoadGLXFunction`, making it impossible to have any OpenGL context in a 32-bit application. I encountered this issue in multiarch-testing, but I'm assuming this issue would persist for i686 users as well.

While this normally is not a huge issue since any respectable OpenGL application is 64-bit, steam itself is still a 32-bit application and links against `libGL.so`. This makes it impossible to play games if the testing repositories are enabled.

Additional info:

~$ pacman -Q | grep nvidia
lib32-nvidia-libgl 361.18-1
lib32-nvidia-utils 361.18-1
lib32-opencl-nvidia 361.18-1
nvidia 361.18-2
nvidia-libgl 361.18-2
nvidia-utils 361.18-2
opencl-nvidia 361.18-2

Steps to reproduce (for 64-bit x86 users):

* enable `testing` and `multiarch-testing` repositories
* install `lib32-mesa-demos`
* run `glxgears32`
* you will obtain the error: glxgears32: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib32/libGL.so.1: undefined symbol: __glXGLLoadGLXFunction

Produces the same error for any application linked to `libGL.so`. Steam does some other magic and will crash with an unhelpful window reporting that it failed to load `steamui.so`
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Works for me
Additional comments about closing:  glxgears32 works in 361.28-4 for me. Closing for now. Other users don't seem to have this problem either.

works when use a libs(32 compat) includes by NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-XXX.XX.run

really? what version? this is a bug in only the recent beta drivers (361.18-1). I think this is goof on nvidia's end. I had older versions working just fine.

361.18

lib32-nvidia-utils use NVIDIA-Linux-x86-XXX.XX.run instead of 32bits shippied with 64bits nvidia blob

i'm not sure if this is the culprit of fail
