How can I get Rebol2 View running on Arch Linux?

Question

There is a 64-bit version of Rebol2/Core available, but not of /View. If I try to execute the binary, it just says the file does not exist. What 32-bit libs do I need to install to get things running on Arch?

Answer 1

Figured it out. All but one of the packages you need are in the official repos, and the other is available in the AUR, and can be installed with yaourt.

Install from the official repos (make sure you have the multilib repo enabled):

# pacman -S lib32-libx11 lib32-glibc lib32-ncurses lib32-libstdc++5 lib32-libxext lib32-freetype2 xorg-fonts-100dpi xorg-fonts-75dpi

Enable the AUR by adding this to /etc/pacman.conf:

[archlinuxfr]
SigLevel = Never
Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/$arch

Run:

# pacman -Sy make yaourt fakeroot

Install the missing lib:

$ yaourt lib32-libxaw

Then reboot, and you're done!
