Simple. Because it's not in the 32bit repository.

But it is installable on 32-bit systems (like, duh!).

fredg - Great work! Having an easily-accessible list of packages on the web site is very useful. I am a newcomer to Salix and I wonder why a link to this list is not on the home page?

Not yet! But you are right, it should be & probably will... soon.

As I said earlier in this thread, this is very useful! I wonder if it could include details such as package versions? If you follow an app, you might want to confirm the version which is packaged and this list could be used to include that information. Other information contained in the Slackbuild might also be useful.
