(Ubuntu 15.10 64bit) Missing :i386 dependencies libglib2 and libgtk2

[amnesiackid]

The problem seems to be solved now. Lightdm is broken (it probably was before) and gdm didn't start because ubuntu-gnome-desktop was missing, although I re-installed gnome. Now my system is back. Thank god! PCSX2 is also starting. Thank you very much! Without your help I would have never been able to resolve this issue. I hope everything is alright now. That weird libglib246.2-1 driver my system had sure was a tricky one.

I'm glad it is working for you But you did all the work

Hey guys whenever I try to install pcsx2, I get alarmed about missing dependencies.
The missing dependencies are as following:

• libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0:i386
  
• libglib2.0-0:i386
  
• libgtk2.0-0:i386
  
• libwxgtk3.0-0v5:i386
  

It seems to be a 32-bit program related issue as 64-bit programs like Dolphin and Retroarch work but :i386 ones like Wine don't. But Steam works.
I don't really know what to do, I thought maybe some headers are missing somewhere? I can't get to install libglib2.0-0:i386 and libgtk2.0-0:i386, thought the 64-bit versions seem to be installed. Is there a specific way to activate compatibility with 32-bit programs in Ubuntu?

I enabled 32-bit architecture before installation "sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386" and system is up to date.

I would be greatful if some of you could help me out.
You can't find a detailed report including the terminal output on stackexchange: https://askubuntu.com/questions/733421/u...nd-libgtk2

Thank you!

I work on (K)Ubuntu / Linux-Mint 64-Bit environment, and fixed the missing 32-Bit libraries with:

sudo apt-get install lsb-core libc6:i386 libfontconfig1:i386 libglib2.0-0:i386 libglu1-mesa:i386 libsm6:i386 libx11-6:i386 libxext6:i386 libxrender1:i386

For SDL sounds:

sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2debian:i386 libesd0:i386 libmikmod2:i386

Hope this works for you...

If not, then maybe you have to download manually the .deb-Package from the older ubuntu repository and
install in the command line console with: sudo dpkg -i xxx.deb
and watch for other decencies warnings.
