Let me give you the complete picture so that you may undrstand the predicament am in, the Zimbra collab. suite is completely open source, it has a desktop version which is only available as a .i686 package. see it for yourself:
http://www.zimbra.com/downloads/zd-downloads.html
i installed compat-libstdc++ but it still doesn't work . This is the error message :
WARNING: ia32-libs is missing for x86_64 platform. This package is required to run Zimbra Desktop on 64-bit Linux.
Please help.....
Please stop top-posting and full-quoting. Thanks.
ia32-libs is a Debianism![1] There is nothing equal on CentOS. Others have already pointed out that CentOS is multiarch and that you can install i?86 packages in parallel to the basic x86_64 arch packages.
If the script you are running is hardcoded to require ia32-libs, then that install method is not compatible with CentOS. You probably will have to read the script's code to see whether it fits CentOS.
