Correct Linux staff client build instructions
There were a few things going on here; 2.3 introduced linux32-client and
linux64-client targets, so the old linux-client Make target no longer
worked.
Also, Wine isn't generally how many of us would recommend running staff
clients when there's a perfectly good native client likely to better
support printing, etc.
Also, rather than pointing at evergreen-ils.org for downloads, which
won't work in many situations (and which prevents the use of the
auto-update mechanism), use the "updates" target to point at the locally
downloadable clients. Eventually we'll properly document the use of
auto-updates, but for now this is hopefully a step in the right
direction.

-One of th easiest ways to run a staff client on a Linux machine is to use the
-Windows client with Wine.
-
-. Install http://www.winehq.org/download/[Wine] on your Linux machine.
-. Download the staff client from http://www.open-ils.org/downloads.php.
-. Right click on the downloaded file and open with _Wine Windows
-Program Loader_.
-. Follow the same instructions as you would for

-This will generate a staff client tarball called

-. FTP or SCP the tarball to your staff client

-. From your staff client machine, create a folder with the name of

+[source, bash]
+--------
+chown -R opensrf:opensrf /openils

++
+. On your staff client workstation, download the 32-bit or 64-bit version of
+ the staff client from your Web server at
+ http://hostname/updates/manualupdate.html (where _hostname_ represents the
+ hostname of your Web server).
+. On your staff client workstation, create a directory with the name of your
+ staff client and version.
+. Extract the tar files into that directory.
+. Within the directory, click on the `evergreen` file to start the program.

Build 64-bit Linux client updates when asked
A copy/paste error led to a request for linux64-updates-client to
generate 32-bit clients instead of the requested 64-bit clients.
