Build question, Ubuntu 12.10

Post by Bigfoot73 »

The build instructions says that the following links must be created on a 64-bit host:
ln -s libX11.so.6 /usr/lib32/libX11.so
ln -s libXTrap.so.6 /usr/lib32/libXTrap.so
ln -s libXt.so.6 /usr/lib32/libXt.so
ln -s libXtst.so.6 /usr/lib32/libXtst.so
ln -s libXmu.so.6 /usr/lib32/libXmu.so
ln -s libXext.so.6 /usr/lib32/libXext.so

Question1: There is no source path specified, just the file name and the destination. There are several versions of most of the files. Is /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu the path to use?

Question2: I have no libXTrap.so.6 anywhere. What must I install to get that?

These symlinks are not necessary for Ubuntu 12.10. Just enable multiarch support (dpkg --add-architecture i386) and install libx11-dev:i386 and all the other required :i386 packages.
