Ubuntu 64 bit Machinarium: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0

Question

I just downloaded Ubuntu 13.10 final beta 64 bit and every program that I use work flawlessly with the exception of "Machinarium" a very cool flash game. The game doesn't have a .deb package and I used to be able to play it before. I tried installing lib32 and ia32 and it says it is installed to the last version or if I try lib32-dev it says that is no longer available. Here is my ldd command result:

Solution 1

apparently you have to install the libgtk2.0-0:i386 package.

sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386

Solution 2

There are 2 options to run Machinarium on Ubuntu 13.10 64bits.

Deb Package

If we have the .deb package (and yes! it is a 32bit package).

You must to install it with Ubuntu Software Center (not using dpkg -i), so simply double click the file.

To remove the game

sudo dpkg -r machinarium 

TAR.GZ version

If you have the tar.gz version.

You need to install all those libraries.

sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386 libnss3:i386 libcurl3-gnutls:i386 libidn11:i386 libpango1.0-0:i386 libpangox-1.0-0:i386 libpangoxft-1.0-0:i386 librtmp0:i386 libxft2:i386

Run it on STEAM

In both cases if you want to run it with STEAM as a NO Steam game, you must to install also this last library.

sudo apt-get install libxtst6:i386

You should just be able to do sudo apt-get install packagename:i386 for the missing libraries to get 32-bit versions (AFAIK) (although that doesn't guarantee that appropriate library versions are still available).

[Admin]

The system tells me that I have the libs installed, yet I can't find them.

[Admin]

"Ubuntu 13.10 final beta 64 bit", have you tried with an stable?

[Admin]

@Fonz Yes, the installer shows those packages. I've installed but still didnt load the shared library.

[Mina Michael]

That's not the only needed package. @Nothor listed all the needed packages and the game worked for me. sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386 libnss3:i386 libcurl3-gnutls:i386 libidn11:i386 libpango1.0-0:i386 libpangox-1.0-0:i386 libpangoxft-1.0-0:i386 librtmp0:i386 libxft2:i386

@MinaMichael those other libs will be automatically added to the install list by the dependancy mechanim.

Update. The game's not working on 18.04. The package librtmp0:i386 cannot be installed. The game gives this error: error while loading shared libraries: libXt.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[ARA1307]

@MinaMichael, sudo apt install libxt6:i386 resolves issue on Ubuntu 18.04
