  • Yum installing 32big GNU development tools on x64 system

    Posted on

    I have been using Red Hat with 64bit development tools since January this year, the project I am now working on requires 32bit GNU tools. I've checked:

        /usr/include/gnu
    

    It contains:

    -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1270 Aug 11 06:56 libc-version.h
    -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 4844 Aug 11 06:56 lib-names.h
    -rw-r--r--. 1 root root  604 Aug 11 06:57 stubs-64.h
    -rw-r--r--. 1 root root  384 Aug 11 06:56 stubs.h
    

    I tried to install the 32bit tools:

    sudo yum install glibc-devel.i686
    

    But the result is:

    Loaded plugins: langpacks, product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager

     You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
