32bit libs without the 32bit chroot
Hi,
I'm trying to set up printing on Lexmark Z612. This beast has a binary driver
only, available from Lexmark (actually, the driver is for the model Z600).
After extracting the files from the RPMs to the appropriate directories, I
got it almost working, except
[root@balmora /usr/lib]# ldd /usr/lib/cups/filter/rastertoz600
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000)
liblexprintjob.so.0 => /usr/lib/liblexprintjob.so.0 (0x55583000)
liblexz600core.so.0 => /usr/lib/liblexz600core.so.0 (0x55588000)
libcups.so.2 => not found
libcupsimage.so.2 => not found
libstdc++.so.5 => /emul/ia32-linux/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 (0x55627000)
libm.so.6 => /usr/i486-linux/lib/libm.so.6 (0x556e1000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /emul/ia32-linux/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x55704000)
libc.so.6 => /usr/i486-linux/lib/libc.so.6 (0x5570c000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x55555000)
As you can see, the drivers (the rastertoz600 binary) are 32bit only and
therefore link to 32bit libraries. Now, the only thing I need to do is to
install CUPS to the 32bit environment so that the executable rastertoz600
will find it.
My question is, what is the easiest way to do that? I have not set up the
32bit chroot but I do have ia32-* libraries installed. Is there a way I can
install the 32bit cupsys into /emul/ia32-linux directory without actually
going through the 32bit deboostrap? And, how can I install all the 32bit
cupsys dependencies too?
How do the maintainers of ia32-libs-dev, ia32-libs, and the like do that?
TIA, jbar
