When I run sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 I get this message:
Need to get 3.902 kB of archives. After this operation, 5.490 MB disk space will be freed. You are about to do something potentially harmful. To continue type in the phrase 'Yes, do as I say!'
What I must do?? Can I install it on Zorin 16 or it will break the whole system??
It is for game-dev. I need to compile custom SDK based on Valve's source 1 SDK and its vpc compiler is 32 bit file. file vpc_linux: vpc_linux: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2, for GNU/Linux 3.2.32, with debug_info, not stripped
it still writes After this operation, 5.490 MB disk space will be freed. You are about to do something potentially harmful. To continue type in the phrase 'Yes, do as I say!' ?]
Must I accept this or not?
Edit:
Wait,it is the same command that I wrote in my question
running@child:~$ sudo dpkg --print-architectures dpkg: error: unknown option --print-architectures Type dpkg --help for help about installing and deinstalling packages [*]; Use 'apt' or 'aptitude' for user-friendly package management; Type dpkg -Dhelp for a list of dpkg debug flag values; Type dpkg --force-help for a list of forcing options; Type dpkg-deb --help for help about manipulating *.deb files;
but print-architecture works: running@child:~$ sudo dpkg --print-architecture amd64
Ok, looks good. I just wanted to be sure that the "upgrades" were not due to a removal. I believe it was because you were not set to main server.
I think what got you fixed up here was
Setting to Main server
Adding i386 architecture
You did 100% right by not ignoring that warning and being sure to patiently check. That could have had you more than frustrated trying to repair it or even having to Reinstall Zorin OS.
