   Sure, lttng-sessiond accepts consumerd(32|64)-(libdir|path) options which in turn override the environment variables LTTNG_CONSUMERD(32|64)_(LIBDIR|BIN) variables.  Setting the with-consumerd(32|64)-(libdir|bin) configure options simply sets the default values for these.

   I’m curious as to why your relay daemon was misbehaving.  It should be unaffected by bitness, since the session daemon takes care of creating the 32- and 64-bitconsumer daemons and tells them where to send their event streams.  I noticed the lttng-relayd binaries built by a 64-bit-only installation and a mixed 32-64-bit one are different, so maybe something subtle was going on.  However, when I copied the “64-bit-only” relay daemon executable over to the mixed environment and ran the tracing experiment again, it captured both 32- and 64-bit events.

   You must have somehow broken your relay daemon?
