Brian Rogers THANK YOU for this. It solved all the problems with the
32-bit firefox and 32-bit thunderbird that i have here (ontop of 64bit
Gutsy).
I've tested the suggestion and it works better than anything else.
Everywhere else all the suggestions are to edit the startup scripts and
insert an:
export GTK_PATH=/usr/lib32/gtk-2.0
The result is that when running a 32bit-thunderbird, whenever i try to
open a pdf file, evince comes without a theme at all because the
GTK_PATH points to the 32bit libraries (which obviously 64-bit evince
cannot use).
The suggestion given above:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/gtk-2.0/2.10.0 /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/i486-pc-
linux-gnu
solved all the 64-bit and 32-bit problems i had with gtk. Without
changing a SINGLE line everything works beatifully. 64-bit applications
see 64-bit gtk and 32-bit applications see 32-bit gtk.
PLEASE PLEASE put this in ia32-libs. It really solves a lot of problems
with gutsy.
