  • Can't install glibc.i686 on RHEL7.x

    Posted on

    I am trying to build an old piece of software which requires glibc.686. I can't seem to find where the repository is for glibc.i686.

    [root@dub-001948-VM01 ~]# yum install glibc.i686
    Loaded plugins: auto-update-debuginfo, langpacks, search-disabled-repos
    No package glibc.i686 available.
    Error: Nothing to do
    [root@dub-001948-VM01 ~]#

    The compiler error is:

    x86.el5.i386/usr/bin/g++: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory

    I have also tried to install compatibility libraries.
