Debian and Ubuntu changed the way they handle multi arch systems in their latest releases. Part of the change was to eliminate ia32-libs. Adding it from the repository of another release is not recommended. The right way to do it is:
$ sudo dpkg —add-architecture i386 $ sudo apt-get update The to get a particular package: $ sudo apt-get install package:i386 where you replace “package” with the package name you need. All dependencies are automatically installed. For the Elecraft utilities this command suffices: $ sudo apt-get install libstdc++6:i386 libgtk2.0-0:i386 libgtkhtml3.14-19:i386 gtk2-engines-oxygen:i386 A bunch of prerequisite packages will be automatically pulled in. 73, David W4DES On May 27, 2014, at 3:14 AM, Martin Kratoska <[email protected]> wrote: > 1.
