OK, try this command, hopefully it's the last dependency that you'll need:

$ sudo apt-get install libjpeg8:i386

Uh, could he not just try installing the 32-bit version of FSO and get all the appropriate 32-bit dependencies?

yeah, I suggested that a few posts back, but by this point it should be one command either way. This

Code: [Select]
$ sudo apt-get install libjpeg8:i386

Or this

Code: [Select]
$ sudo apt-get install freespace2

Surely that'd install 64-bit dependencies and wouldn't help with the 32-bit version the installer's apparently used?

I am a dunce, you are quite correct. So this is probably what would be required (I just haven't tested it myself)

This

$ sudo apt-get install libjpeg8:i386

or this

$ sudo apt-get install freespace2:i386

More importantly: the installer should not be using 32-bit Linux binaries in this day and age.
