Where to find development libs?

I was trying to install the "wine-staging" SlackBuild and I got this error;

Code: Select all

checking whether gcc -m32 works... no
configure: error: Cannot build a 32-bit program, you need to install 32-bit development libraries.
fakeroot -- sh wine-staging.SlackBuild Failed
I have no idea where to look for those libraries or exactly which libraries to look for. Do I need the 32-bit version of every installed library? Salix is already a multilib distro from what I can tell. So I can't be missing too many things.

If you're running a 64-bit system, you need to install multilib - though another option is to create a 32-bit chroot. Please search the forum for more information about both or either, and also about wine and other ways of running the things you might want it for.

Thanks, I found the multilib thread and things are moving ahead properly now.

I'll look around for some Wine info.
