Hi :) this might help everyone who has got trouble because of 32 bit vs 64 bit, it isn't just to solve the trouble for the application Unstoppable Copier, but I guess to solve trouble for a lot of other applications too.
I downloaded Roadkil's Unstoppable Copier as x86_64 version from http://www.roadkil.net/program.php?ProgramID=29, but there's a problem, because it anyhow needs a 32 bit lib. Because the installed lib was missing, as a test I added this invalid link ... spinymouse-s...@64studio:~/Download$ ./unstopcp --help ./unstopcp: error while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64 spinymouse-s...@64studio:~/Download$ ls -al /usr/lib32/libqt-mt* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 2009-12-13 11:43 /usr/lib32/libqt-mt.so.3 -> /usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 ... just to know if it expect a 32 bit lib in this directory. After the test I deleted the link. I still have got a 32 bit chroot for my 64 Studio 3.0-beta3, but I prefer a way to install 32 bit libs to the regular installation. Searching the web I found information: "Also never, ever, ever force install 32bit libraries. They could overwrite existing 64bit libraries and make your system unstable. You can use getlibs <http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=474790> to safely install 32bit software, forcing an application is ok, bu never libraries." (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=928070) So I get getlibs and tested it ... spinymouse-s...@64studio:~/Download$ sudo dpkg -i getlibs-all.deb Selecting previously deselected package getlibs. (Reading database ... 173799 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking getlibs (from getlibs-all.deb) ...

Installing libraries ... ... and now I can launch Unstoppable Copier, btw. Unstoppable Copier has got no --help option ;).
