Hi Kevin,
I use Livecode server on several Linux machines:
Centos 7 / 8 and Ubuntu 14/16/18.
I didn't need 32bits libraries.
I created a brief installation tuto in my blog:
https://www.hermanotemblon.com/instalacion-de-livecode-server-en-ubuntu/
It is in Spanish, but you could use Google translator.
Best,
Hery

Ah... documentation...
I just looked at the release notes. Apparently Debian 7 and 8 are all
that's officially supported. That's unfortunate.
and rereading your original post, I see you're looking at a "lesson"
to figure this out. I assume that's
http://lessons.livecode.com/m/4070/l/36652-how-do-i-install-livecode-server-on-linux-with-apache
where I see the bewildering statement
"32bit libraries are required for LiveCode server to run on a 64bit
Linux distribution"
I ran ldd on the server binary and I don't see any 32-bit
dependencies. I assume that's an old statement in the lesson and
should be deleted. Those instructions were written in 2013. I wouldn't
trust them for any recent builds. I just assume that fiddling with
.htaccess would get things working, the same as on other distros.
That said, I haven't tried to set this up on Debian so I can't really
help with this. There is (now) a longer comment from Russell Martin on
that lesson page, and it might help to follow his lead on that rather
than the outdated lesson. Even Russell's comment, though, is from some
six years ago, so YMMV.
