-Running 64bit Matlab on 32bit host OS
-=====================================
-
-Some of you have experienced problems due the recent move of Mathworks to
-drop 32-bit Linux builds of their products (i.e. Matlab R2013a and
-co.). Please note that this is not the first time Mathworks values its own
-costs higher than the benefits of a few scientists. In 1998 PowerPC builds
-for Macs were abandoned, causing a `furious reaction
-<http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/newsreader/view_thread/5910>`__
-of the community.
-
-Luckily, users of the fresh Debian stable release *wheezy* (or more recent
-variants of Debian and its derivatives) who still need a 32bit OS on
-64bit-capable hardware can take advantage of the new `multiarch
-<http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch>`_ support. Multiarch allows for
-multiple architecturesi to co-exist on a hardware/kernel
-that is capable of supporting both (e.g. i386 and amd64).
-
-Below we describe how you can use multiarch support and in few simple steps
-that prepare your existing 32bit user-land for running 64bit Matlab.
-
-
-Procedure
----------
-
-- [2-10 min] Install 64-bit kernel and reboot::
-
- sudo apt-get install linux-image-amd64
-
-- [1-3 min] Enable multi-arch support for amd64 architecture::
-
- sudo dpkg --add-architecture amd64
- sudo apt-get update
-
-- [1-5 min] Install 64bit libraries (and compilers) needed for matlab::
-
- sudo apt-get install libstdc++6:amd64 zlib1g:amd64 libncurses5:amd64 \
- libxp6:amd64 libstdc++6-4.4-dev:amd64 libxt6:amd64 libxmu6:amd64 libxtst6:amd64 \
- g++:amd64 gcc:amd64 binutils:amd64
-
-Now your 64bit matlab (which you hopefully "registered" with
-:ref:`matlab-support <binary_pkg_matlab-support>`) is ready to run.
-
-If you have any comments (typos, improvements, etc) -- feel welcome to
-leave a comment below, or `contact us`_ .
