Title: Running 32-bit (x86) LispWorks on 64-bit (x86_64) Linux

ID: 17063


Product: LispWorks for Linux
Version: 6.0
OS: Linux

Description: If LispWorks fails to run with an error message saying that libc.so.6 or libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 is missing or needed, or "No such file or directory" then you are probably trying to run 32-bit LispWorks on a 64-bit (x86_64) Linux installation without the necessary runtime libraries.

To resolve this, you need to install the 32-bit libraries from your Linux distribution. Some Linux distributions install these automatically, but others require explicit installation. For example:

Fedora 14
Install gtk2.i686, for example by running the following as root:
# yum install gtk2.i686
This will install all of the dependencies as well.

openSUSE 11.3
Install the gtk2-32bit package using the Software Manager tool.

Ubuntu 10.10
Install the ia32-libs package using the Synaptic Package Manager tool, or using
sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

Ubuntu 13, 14 and 15
Install the required i386 architecture libraries using:
sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386
sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-murrine:i386


Debian 7
Install the required i386 architecture and libraries using:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386
sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines:i386
