[Pkg-ia32-libs-maintainers] Bug#698945: ia32-libs(20120926) works - ia32-libs"1.0:4" does not !

[Holger Weiss]

Package: ia32-libs
Version: 1:0.4
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
I have 2 machine with identical hardware: machine1 and machine2, both with the
Debian wheezy amd64 release.

Machine1 got the last update in October 2012 and it is using "ia32-libs"
Version "20120926". On this machine the software works !

Machine 2 was reinstalled 2 days ago and uses "ia32-libs" in Version "1:0.4".
This machine shows the error:
"hpeesofhelp: error while loading shared libraries: libXm.so.3: wrong ELF
class: ELFCLASS64
Gemx error, error code = 11"

On both machines I need to run the software which is using both 32bit and 64bit
"libmotif" libs. Especially the "libXm.so.3" (I had to create a symbolic link
to "libXm.so.4" on both machines to make it work, because the file did not
exist!).

I also found that the folder "/usr/lib32" doesnot exist on machine 2 !

I expected the software to work as smooth as on machine 1.

Is there any significant change in handling the "ia32-libs" between this
versions ?

How can I make my software working with "ia32-libs" (1:0.4) ?

The software I am using is ADS2012 (and ADS2011) from Agilent.
