[SOLVED] Installing LiveCode 6 on 64-bit Debian 7 (Wheezy)

Hi

I downloaded the LiveCodeCommunityInstaller-6_0_0-Linux.x86 file.

I am trying to install this in a clean (vanilla) Debian 7 64-bit system.

I then assigned execute permissions and tried to execute, with the following result:

Code: Select all

$ chmod go+x LiveCodeCommunityInstaller-6_0_0-Linux.x86
$ ./LiveCodeCommunityInstaller-6_0_0-Linux.x86
bash: ./LiveCodeCommunityInstaller-6_0_0-Linux.x86: No such file or directory
Keep in mind ia32-libs is deprecated in Debian 7 (Wheezy).

How should I go about installing LiveCode on a 64-bit Debian 7 system ?

I had to take some time to fully read and understand the official Debian documentation about Multiarch. From there, this is what worked for me:

Code: Select all

$ sudo -s
# dpkg --add-architecture i386
# apt-get update
# apt-get install ia32-libs ia32-libs-gtk
# exit
Many packages will be installed. After installation has completed:

Code: Select all

$ chmod +x LiveCodeCommunityInstaller-6_0_0-Linux.x86
$ ./LiveCodeCommunityInstaller-6_0_0-Linux.x86
... and follow instructions as usual.
