I have an amd64 installation of Debian 6.0 (Squeeze), where I need to install a 32 bit version of the libpcap0.8.

I have done an apt-get install ia32-libs which gets me a 32 bit libc and a few other things, but now I need another specific 32 bit package.

What do I have to do ?

(EDIT: the suggested duplicate is for Debian 7 and Ubuntu, and does not work on Debian 6)

  • You should use the 2nd (not accepted) answer of the duplicate that suggests using multiarch. – terdon Feb 25 '14 at 12:18
  • @terdon How so ? That approach does not work on Debian 6.0. (The answer might ofcourse be that it simply can't be done on Squeeze, but I don't know) – nos Feb 25 '14 at 14:00
  • My bad, I missed that you were on squeeze. The first approach (schroot) should work though. If not, [edit] this question and explain that you tried it and it failed, then the Q will be reopened. – terdon Feb 25 '14 at 14:03
  • Did you also try the schroot approach? – terdon Feb 25 '14 at 14:16
  • Nothing in the duplicate works? I think it was intended to be a comprehensive answer for most/all Ubuntu and Debian versions – Michael Mrozek Feb 25 '14 at 15:11
  • @MichaelMrozek Squeeze is pre-multiarch. IMO OP should use stable instead since it will save him several headaches – Braiam Feb 25 '14 at 15:32
  • You're really better off moving to wheezy. Is there some reason you can't? – Faheem Mitha Feb 25 '14 at 15:47
