Another Linux file question

Post by RobH
When installing i386 versions of a file which maybe a x64 version is
already installed, does the i386 version have to be the same version
number as the x64 version.

Yes.

(The actual check is that all the files that appear in both packages
have the same MD5 hash. But the changelog will, with overwhelming
probability, fail to match unless the packages are the same version.)

Thanks, I thought so.

Now I have an i386 deb file which is the same version as the x64 version.
This is : libatk-1.0.so.0.22209.1, i386 file, then the exact same
version inx86_64-linux-gnu. Here I did see that there were other libatk
files as well: libatk-bridge-2.0.so.0, and libatkmm-1.6.so.1

For the i386 version does it also nee the other libatk files to go with
it, as other wise I get this error when I try to install the i386 version:

sudo dpkg -i libatk1.0-0_2.22.0-1_i386.deb
(Reading database ... 326931 files and directories currently installed.)

None of those are the version of the .deb. To find out what you have
installed use:

dpkg -l libatk1.0-0

None of those are the version of the .deb. To find out what you have
dpkg -l libatk1.0-0

Stop trying to use dpkg for this, use apt-get install.

dpkg -l libatk1.0-0

And after checking the i386-linux-gnu directory there are no libatk
files there.

I tried to install it by the method you say and this is the output.

The libatk deb file is definitely there in the Downloads directory, and
I copied and pasted the complete file name.

Yes, thanks
I am have a problem with just 2 more lib files now which
sudo apt-get install cant find the said files:

Again this is the same file version or number as the one in the
x86_64-linux-gnu directory.

Exactly the same mistake as last time, apt-get just wants the package
name (and optionally, architecture), not the version number as well.

Haven’t we done this one? You presumably have the 64-bit version
installed in a different version. I suggest you bring your system up to
date with:
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
before proceeding any further.

What, incidentally, is all this supposed to achieve?

I have a windows program, Weather Display, running on a windows7
machine, and although there is a linux version or equivalent of the
program, the developer says it will only run on a x32 bit system.

Now other users of Ubuntu x64, have had success running the x32 bit
program, and I would like to do the same so I can turn the windows 7
machine into a linux machine.
If it cannot be done, I'll live with it and leave the program running on
windows 7.

Thanks

The launcher script will be picking up those library
files that come with the download. As they're in the
"deploy" folder.

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$DIR_PATH/deploy/
$DIR_PATH/WeatherD

So the mystery for me is, why are there fewer items
in the second "ldd" list ?

The executable itself is huge, at 121,132,164 bytes.
It's a bit "busy" inside.

Now I see why you're trying to fetch these manually.
The launcher script will be picking up those library
files that come with the download. As they're in the
"deploy" folder.
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$DIR_PATH/deploy/
$DIR_PATH/WeatherD
So the mystery for me is, why are there fewer items
in the second "ldd" list ?
The executable itself is huge, at 121,132,164 bytes.
It's a bit "busy" inside.

HTH,

Thanks, but yes I know it has some lib files in the /deploy directory,
but there are others which WD needs:
It set off with about 8 or 9 lib x32 lib files not found, but I managed
by some means to get that figure down gradually over a few days.

A list of dependencies for WD and you should see 1 lib file is not found:

libpango-1.0.so.0 => not found
libpango-1.0.so.0 => not found

So the mystery for me is, why are there fewer items
in the second "ldd" list ?

Because the second system doesn’t have 32-bit versions of those
libraries installed.

I have done this as per from a post in my earlier thread:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 && sudo apt-get update

Then I rebooted but it didn't appear to help,
I am now stuck at installing the libpango-1.0:i386 file, and am now
getting this:

Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Note, selecting 'libpango-1.0-0:i386' for regex 'libpango-1.0'
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies.

That wasn’t necessary; previous posts indicate that i386 had already
been added as an architecture.

I have version 17.04, so I take that means I have to look for the
correct version number of libgtk.
I thought I had already done that!

I realise that it is libgtk-x11 and not just libgtk
In x86-64-linux-gnu I have libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0, and
libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.2400.31.
In i386-linux-gnu I have libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 and libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.2400.30

So I need to look for another libgtk-x11 file.

What does
dpkg -l libgtk2.0-0 libpango-1.0-0
show?

My current best guess is that at some point in the process you installed
one or more packages from 16.10, and are now running into the conflicts
this generates.

That version is from 16.04. Remove it, and anything that depends on it,
and try using apt-get to install the correct version.

Apply similar logic to anything else you find from 16.04; use
https://packages.ubuntu.com to map package names and versions back to
release.

Thanks, but how do I remove the said version. Is there a correct way or
is it just right click and move to wastebin

sudo apt-get purge <package name>

and then use apt-get to install and you will get the correct version
this time.

apt-get remove libgtk2.0-0:i386
or
dpkg --remove libgtk2.0-0:i386
but in the latter case you will need to remove any that depends on it
manually.

I have the synaptic package manager installed and I have uninstalled
both libgtk and libgdk libraires as well as any dependencies

Now as I look for i386 versions of the said lib files in the package
manager , there is libgtk-3-0:i386, and the version number is
3.22.11-0ubuntu3.

In the x86_64-linux-gnu directory the libgtk-3.so.0, with no version number.

And for libpango in the x86_64 directory it is just libpango-1.0.so.0,
and there is libpango -1.0.so.0.4000.4

In the packager manger of i386, there is libpango-1.0-0:i386.

Will either or non of the above in package manager be ok to install.

I have tried just installing the libpango lib file from the cmd line and
it won't install because :
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/libpango-1.0-0_1.40.4-1_i386.deb: trying to
overwrite shared '/usr/share/doc/libpango-1.0-0/NEWS.gz', which is
different from other instances of package libpango-1.0-0:i386

That’s a different package, (probably) not relevant to any of this
discussion.

Version numbers of .so files are not closely related to version numbers
of packages.

Use apt-get to install the packages you actually need. If you run into
new instances of the problems we’ve seen before, re-apply the same logic
already posted; if you run into new problems, post here.

I have tried to install the libpango-1.0-0:i386 file by sudo apt-get
install, and it returned this:

What it seems like is that the libfile won't install because a NEWS.gz
can't be over written.
I've checked the i386 directory and it is not installed.

We’ve done this one twice now already. You have the amd64 libpango-1.0-0
installed as some other version. The solution is the same as the last
two times.

I'm not following you very well now.
Are saying that the libpango file I am trying to install is a x64 bit
version, as the x86_64 file is libpango-1.0.so.0.4000.4, and so is the
i386 version which I have.

I grabbed that deb file from here:

https://packages.ubuntu.com/zesty/libs/libpango-1.0-0,

then selected the i386 version.

Then sudo apt-get install libpango-1.0-0:i386, but it won't install due
to the same reason as before in that the NEWS.gz is write protected.

I don't understand what else is wrong.

Thanks

You already have the 64-bit version of libpango-1.0-0 installed. If you
install both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of a package, then (in
practice) they have to be the same version.

If they do not match then either the installed, 64-bit version is out of
date, or you have contrived to install a version from some other version
of Ubuntu.

There’s no need to download the debs manually. Just use apt-get.

It is not write-protected. Read the error message more carefuly.
