Eagle 6.5.0 in Debian 7 64-bit

I thought I would take a look at Eagle but I cannot get it to install on my Debian 7 64-bit system.

Running the downloaded eagle-lin-6.5.0.run installer I get:

$ cd /tmp

$ wget ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/eagle/program/6.5/eagle-lin-6.5.0.run

$ chmod +x eagle-lin-6.5.0.run

$ ./eagle-lin-6.5.0.run

/tmp/eagle-setup.9733/eagle-6.5.0/bin/eagle: error while loading shared libraries: libXrender.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

It appears that Eagle needs some 32-bit libraries but I don't think these are available on Debian 7 64-bit.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Hartley

Hi Hartley,

On 64-bit machines, EAGLE needs a 32-bit environment to be setup. Try
the procedure referenced below:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update

Some additional info can be found here

After adding the architecture, you'll need to install the i386 libraries:

sudo apt-get install libxrender1:i386 libxrandr2:i386 libxcursor1:i386 libfreetype6:i386 libfontconfig1:i386 libxi6:i386 libssl1.0.0:i386

and possible some more.

I think the following packages are needed:

sudo apt-get install libxrender1:i386
sudo apt-get install libxrandr2:i386
sudo apt-get install libxcursor1:i386
sudo apt-get install libfreetype6:i386
sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1:i386
sudo apt-get install libxi6:i386
sudo apt-get install libpng12-0:i386
sudo apt-get install libstdc++6:i386
sudo apt-get install libjpeg62:i386

Dose installation successful?
I also plan - install hobbist version under virtual machine, but also have 64bit and on Mac I have already installed light version, they can't work together.
