    32bit apps on 64bit Kubuntu

    I wanna use 32bit apps in my 64bit Kubuntu 13.04. I wanna install some programs like MediaDrug (Music downloader). I'm installed linux32 and ia32-libs, but the program does not opens. It gives me an error : "Segmentation fault (core dumped)". I can open Skype, but not MediaDrug. What's wrong?

      For some of my 32-bit programs I've needed multiarch support (in Precise, anyway). I don't know more than that, but maybe it's worth a try.

      sudo apt-get install multiarch-support ia32-libs-multiarch

      Perhaps installing ia32-libs actually installs those automatically these days, but once upon a time it didn't and I had to install them manually.

      Right now the killer is being surrounded by a web of deduction, forensic science,
      and the latest in technology such as two-way radios and e-mail.

        The crux of this is not 32 bit support, it is the sketchiness of the software that does sketchy things in probably sketchy ways. Simply search for eternal reviews of this program and it brings up a number of hits, all from different websites but with the same exact text.

          Well, but in 32bit Kubuntu runs normally...

            You are likely missing one or a few specific 32 bit libs, but as the program segfaults instead of giving an error message, it might be hard to determine which one.

            I am usually open to installing strange software to help track or reproduce a problem but something is telling me to stay away.

              I downloaded the .gz file for Linux. It contains a compiled 'installer' file, so you can't look at it. It 'retrieves/installs' the program from a remote location. It is not a standard .deb package.

                Is there any source code of the program?

                  Lol !
                  I highly doubt it.

                    I can't install ia32-libs, because of "ia32-libs has no installation candidate" .. Damn Linux bugs!

                      In 13.04 32-bit, the package is ia32-libs-multiarch
                      Description-en: Multi-arch versions of former ia32-libraries
                      This package depends on i386 versions of packages that were removed from
                      ia32-libs and transitioned to multi-arch. This allows applications using
                      ia32-libs in previous Ubuntu releases to continue functioning without missing
                      libraries.
                      In 13.04 64-bit, ia32-libs exists in the repositories; I have it installed.
                      Package: ia32-libsPriority: optional

                      This is a transitional package depending on ia32-libs-multiarch, an i386-only
                      metapackage that depends on all of the libraries that were previously
                      included in this package. If no other packages are installed that depend
                      on this package, it can be safely removed.
