Hi all,
I'm reading up on wheezy in preparation for upgrading my systems to it
(yes, I'm still happily running squeeze). I saw the section on the new
multiarch support in the release, and wanted to know this. I have a
system here which is 64-bit capable, but is running an i386 install
of squeeze. Once I upgrade to wheezy will it be possible for me to
switch over to a 64-bit install by just doing:

dpkg --add-architecture=amd64
dpkg --remove-architecture=i386
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

or is it still more complicated than that, like it used to be? Thanks
in advance.

Greg
