[arch-general] cant run adb on arch64
Hi arch guys, Happy new year! I tried to develop android software on arch64. I followed steps in arch wiki, and replaced base-devel to multilib-devel. But I still cant run adb on my laptop. [adrian@myhost platform-tools]$ ./adb ./adb: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory How to solve this problem? Thanks. Adrian
Did you install the dev tools trought AUR package?
./adb: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open Would indicate that you are simplky missing the ncurses or lib32-ncurses pkg if adb is 32-bi executable :D
I install sdk through android developer website. It works after I install
lib32-ncurses pkg.
Thanks a lot :)

You should never do anything like that in Arch. ALWAYS use the PKGBUILD, when it might save you a a hell of lot time, wich might othervice go into all sorts of tinkering, expecially when installing binary only stuff. You are going to run into all sorts of problems with that thing in future and people are sure gonna get angry cuz you complain about stuff not working but they cannot understand why, just becouse you used unoffical method. Read the Arch Linux Wiki, it is a ral tresure cave. Expecially read the page about AUR. 1: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR 2: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Android PS: Top posting is not really liked here in Arch forums, so remeber to write your replys under the old message.

Are you speaking about developing Android applications or more of compiling AOSP? If its the latter it might not be so easy. Primarily because Android requires older versions of GCC, Python, and Java 6 Sun. Arch is rolling release so that will definitely be a stopper.

Good thing it works for you. Also, you can try installing these from AUR [1][2][3]. It could save you a lot of time, install dependencies automatically and it will be easy to update/uninstall.

BTW, It is easy to solve this problem by use
$ apt-get install ia32-libs in Ubuntu.
Is there same easy method like this in Arch?
Thanks.
Adrian.

Install the needed package... I'm not nice enough to point out which one given it is quite obvious from the error message.
