Some issues after switching from 686 to x86_64

Hi all,

after switching from i686 to x86_64 using this link I am now facing some minor issues with some packages. I already activated the multilib repository but some problems remain. I checked the binaries in /usr/bin for 32 bit executables as described in the above link and there are 177 "bad" binaries left. I thought all of these were not executable, but surprisingly wine was. Strange!

ffmpeg is another 32 bit executable and not runnable. So I tried to reinstall it, but that failed:

> pacman -S ffmpeg
warning: ffmpeg-1:2.6.1-1 is up to date -- reinstalling
resolving dependencies...
looking for conflicting packages...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: ffmpeg-compat: requires libx264.so=144-32

libx264 is installed and didn't want to be reinstalled either:

> pacman -S libx264
warning: libx264-2:144.20150223-1 is up to date -- reinstalling
resolving dependencies...
looking for conflicting packages...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: ffmpeg: requires libx264.so=144-32
:: ffmpeg-compat: requires libx264.so=144-32

Can someone give me a hint, what's the best way to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance, Zmann
