Hi
In my experience, 32 bit euphoria can't access 64 bit libraries. You need to
1. run ldd on the libraries you have installed, that the eu program is asking for. 2. install the required libraries on a 32 bit system (if you don't have a 32 bit box, then install virtual box - its easier to install on a windows machine) 3. Copy the files to /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib (overkill - perhaps) 4. If the the eu program requires a specific name, create a symlink in /usr/lib pointing to the lib in /usr/local/lib 5. try the programs again, if still not working, run ldd again, to find whats missing.
Its a complete utter pain, and this and installing printers on Linux is putting me off more and more and more, and if it wasn't the security and reliable networking I would have moved over fully to Windows by now.
