Thanks, Gordon. lib32bz2-1.0 is not known by Ubuntu, but after some experimenting and googling based on your help I discovered:

 apt-get install lib32stdc++6

Progress, but now:

 ab3ap$ ./k3util
Failed to find/load Framework library
/home/mm/ham/elecraft/k3/k3util_1_15_6_27/./RBGUIFramework.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Quick hack, I copied k3util into the "k3util Libs" directory [Unix name with space (?) :-( ] But no joy:

  ab3ap$ ./k3util
  Failed to find/load Framework library
libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Easy, right?  Install the aging gtk2:

  ab3ap# apt-get install libgtk2.0-0
  Reading package lists... Done
  Building dependency tree
  Reading state information... Done
  libgtk2.0-0 is already the newest version (2.24.31-2ubuntu1).
  0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

I forgot.  It's of course 64-bit, as one would expect, so:

  apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386

however this wants to install very many old 32-bit libraries. Ugh. I'm reluctant to turn my machine into a relic for this old software, though my K3 will become a (firmware) relic if I don't. Not a good solution either way. Debating what to do...

73,

ia32-libs is no longer used in the newer versions of ubuntu (debian). Instead install:
lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0
This should fix the problems
