Getting 32-bit libstdc++.so.5 in Karmic Koala on a 64-bit system
The Intel compilers require a 32-bit version of libstdc++.so.5 to function. Getting a copy of that build of that library requires a couple of steps in the latest 64-bit Ubuntu 9.10. These have been alluded to in other places. Just in case someone needs the details, here they are:
- Download the i386 libstdc++ package for Jaunty: http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/i386/libstdc++5/download
- Unpack the .deb archive using ar vx ~/Desktop/libstdc++5_3.3.6-17ubuntu1_i386.deb
- Unpack the resulting data.tar.gz using tar xzvf data.tar.gz
- Confirm that you got the 32-bit version using file usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5.0.7
- Install the library into /usr/lib32 using sudo install usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5.0.7 /usr/lib32
- Change to /usr/lib32 using cd /usr/lib32
- Create a symlink to finish the task via sudo ln -s libstdc++.so.5.0.7 libstdc++.so.5

After retrieving the .deb, why not just install it with "sudo dpkg -i libstdc++5_3.3.6-17ubuntu1_i386.deb"?
That way, apt and dpkg know about it.
Will that command succeed, or does it require forcing your way past prereqs? I don't remember if I thought to try it, or if there's a gcc-3.3-base-something-or-other prereq that prevents it from installing.
Thank you for your help with this!
Debian package is installed perfectly on karmic. http://packages.debian.org/stable/base/libstdc++5
Worked like a laser cat in mid-feburary..
THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
