jetsaredimanyone familiar with how to resolve ia32-libs in 13.10?18:14
mdeslaurjetsaredim: resolve? Ubuntu has been multiarch for a while now, nothing is supposed to use ia32-libs anymore18:15
jetsaredimmdeslaur: ok - so if I'm on amd64 and i'm trying to use a deb that says it needs ia32-libs to function...18:16
mdeslaurjetsaredim: then your deb is broken. It should simply require whatever i386 library...for example: libxyz:i38618:16
mdeslaurthe ia32-libs package is still there, for backwards compatibility, but it shouldn't be used anymore18:16
jetsaredimits not coming up in apt-cache or apt-get install18:16
mdeslaurjetsaredim: what deb is this?18:16
jetsaredimits a deb for printer support for a brother printer18:17
mdeslaurjetsaredim: what is not coming up in apt-cache or apt-get install?18:17
jetsaredimia32-libs18:17
mdeslaurah, it's been removed in saucy apparently18:18
mdeslaurgood18:18
mdeslaurjetsaredim: I suggest sending an email to Brother tech support to ask them to fix their package18:19
jetsaredimthere was never a hard dep on ia32-libs18:19
mdeslaurjetsaredim: oh, so what's broken then?18:19
jetsaredimbut i had to install it under 13.04 in order to make it work18:19
jetsaredimthey don't have the deb packaged with the dep18:19
jetsaredimbut operationally it requires ia32-libs18:19
jetsaredimor whatever was pulled in by ia32-libs18:20
mdeslaurright, so you just need to install those packages yourself18:20
jetsaredimright18:20
mdeslaurdo you have a link to the brother driver? perhaps I can take a look and see what it needs18:21
jetsaredimhttp://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/before.html#00418:21
mdeslauralso, are the brother drivers in the archive too old?18:21
jetsaredimlib32stdc++ aparentky18:21
jetsaredim*apparently18:21
jetsaredimthey worked fine under 13.0418:21
jetsaredimbut i'm not sure if that means lib32stdc++6 or some i386 form of a different lib18:22
mdeslaurjetsaredim: what printer is this for?18:23
jetsaredimmfcj835dw18:23
jetsaredimalso - on an unrelated note - is there a way to restart or kick the panel in the head?18:24
mdeslaurthe panel?18:26
jetsaredimyea top panel18:26
mdeslauroh, I don't know18:26
jetsaredimclock & all that18:26
jetsaredimit seems to have gone off the deep end on me18:26
jetsaredimfwiw the debs do provide a ppd file that's valid for the printer18:28
mdeslaurjetsaredim: I don't see a single i386 binary in those cups packages18:32
mdeslaurthey all look like shell scripts18:32
jetsaredimno idea18:32
jetsaredimi installed the lib32stdc++6 and it seems to work now18:32
jetsaredimso whatev18:32
mdeslauroh wait, I found some18:33
mdeslaurjetsaredim: ok, glad to hear it's working18:33
mdeslaurthey definitely should update their documentation18:33
