Version 7.3.3 installed from Debian repository

deb http://debian.slimdevices.com stable main

via apt-get install squeezecenter.

root@redleg:~# uname -a
Linux redleg.jimwillsher.co.uk 2.6.28-13-server #45-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 30 22:56:18 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux

7.3.3 installs a new copy of flac to /usr/share/squeezecenter/Bin/i386-linux. However this seems to be only for x68 processors.

root@redleg:~# file /usr/share/squeezecenter/Bin/i386-linux/flac
/usr/share/squeezecenter/Bin/i386-linux/flacSave: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.4.1, stripped

whereas the version installed via "apt-get install flac" is for the correct architecture

root@redleg:~# file /usr/bin/flac
/usr/bin/flac: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, stripped


This prevents RTSP streaming (e.g. AlienBBC) from functioning.


Removing the version in /usr/share/squeezecenter/Bin/i386-linux and symlinking to the version in /usr/bin overcomes the problem.

Of course I mean x86 not x68. No edit facility?

For clarification, I'm running x64 Linux (Ubuntu Server 9.04) but 7.3.3 SC installs x86-only version of flac.

So how come the 32-bit binary we ship doesn't run on your system?  It runs OK on my 64-bit Debian test box.

Hi, no idea why it doesnt run for me.

When I try to run it I immediately get an error as though it's not there:

All I know is that it won't run. Sorry, I'm a novice on Linux....

Could it be that you have 32-bit shared libraries installed, and I don't?

Sorry, me again...

is this thread relevant?

http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-65635.html

running    apt-get install i32-libs      does solve the problem....



Jim

sorry, ia32-libs

You always have to have 32bit libraries installed in order to run a  
32bit binary.

Can you run:

ldd flac.old

OK I guess that's an Ubuntu bug then, that should probably be a package that's installed by default.

root@redleg:/usr/share/squeezecenter/Bin/i386-linux# ldd flac.old
        not a dynamic executable
