I used dpkg -i --force-architecture opera_9.50b2-20080422.6-shared-qt_i386-en.deb to install opera.
When I try to run it i get (I don't normally run it as root but I get the same error message as a normal user):
Code:
[root:~#] opera
ERROR: ld.so: object 'libjvm.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
ERROR: ld.so: object 'libawt.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
/usr/lib/opera/9.50-20080422.6/opera: error while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
I tried to remove it as follows:
Code:
[root:~#] apt-get remove opera
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package opera is not installed, so not removed
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2 not upgraded.
[root:~#] dpkg -e opera_9.50b2-20080422.6-shared-qt_i386-en.deb
dpkg-deb: failed to read archive `opera_9.50b2-20080422.6-shared-qt_i386-en.deb': No such file or directory
[root:~#] dpkg -e opera
dpkg-deb: failed to read archive `opera': No such file or directory
It is installed
Code:
[root:~#] dpkg -l | grep opera
ii opera 9.50-20080422.6 The Opera Web Browser

at least (i hope) you learned that --force is never a good idea in conjunction with dpkg !
why did you think it was needed anyways?
looks like opera is halfinstalled.
of the top of my head i know no fix.

I noticed I had an old amd64 version deb of Opera.
So i did a dpkg -i on that package. The system downgraded Opera and now all is well. |

| Is this to say that I can't run i386 versions of software on sidux64. Or is there another method I should use to do that? |

| If at all possible, use amd64 debs from the official Debian repositories. There are a variety of tricks to get some 32 bit apps to run on 64 bit hardware, but those are best avoided, unless you understand completely what you need to do. For opera, I would just stick with the beta deb for amd64. |

Cleanest way is to create a chroot enviroment.
There is not much left that makes that worthwhile though. |
