To install one application on my Suse 12 PPC, on iseries, i need following package in 32 bit version :  
glibc  
libgcc  
glib2  
libstdc++  
zlib

In the Yast package manager i find only the 64 bit version, default installed, but the software productor says are needed the 32 bit version and i must get.

Where i get the 32 bit version of package?

I am a linux beginner, this is my first software installation on linux.

Thanks.

I don’t have any PPC install at hand - by typically, on a 64bit SLES the corresponding 32bit packages have the -32bit suffix in their name.

Unfortunately, not all packages are provided in a 32-on-64bit version, so maybe the software company assumes a 32bit install for their application?

Regards,  
Jens

The software company says that download the 32 bit package from Suse, but i don’t find it.
