dependencies are missing from multilib?

I have been using Arch for 1½ week now and my class has begun once again, in that regard we're using a program calles FirstClass, which is 32bit developed only.
I have found the package in the AUR, but one of the dependencies are missing: lib32-qt3. The bin32-fcc links to a AUR package that isn't there anymore, and doing a pacman -Ss lib32-qt3 doesn't bring any results, even searching a mirror won't show it.
I've searched on google and on this forum, but all I got was mentions of it being in community, which isn't the case anymore.The same has been the case with lib32-libart-lgpl.

Does anyone know where I can find these two? I need them for a school program.

Sincerely yours,

Re: dependencies are missing from multilib?

According to the front page, there has been some changes:

I am happy to announce the availability of the new multilib repository. At this time, it contains wine, skype and flashplugin. Furthermore, a multilib compiler is available.

With the launch of the multilib repository all old 'lib32' packages are being removed from community - the core/extra/community repositories will be "pure 64 bit" again.

If you want to use the new multilib packages (and most desktop or laptop users probably do), add the following lines to your pacman.c

[multilib]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

tobier,

if you pressed the mirror I linked to, it's the multilib repo at ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/archlinux/ smile

Re: dependencies are missing from multilib?

I think it still might be related to the new multilib repository. As part of that, the lib32 packages were made a bit cleaner and end up in /usr/lib32 instead of /opt/lib32. Since qt3 is also being built into /opt to make it compatible with qt4, it would need to be built a bit differently than other lib32 packages to keep it from conflicting with lib32-qt. It might have been removed until someone can come up with a good way to build it in a way similar to the new standards.

If you want to take a shot at modifying it yourself take a look at the qt3 PKGBUILD and some of the other lib32 packages.

Alternatively you might need to setup a chroot to run the program.

Re: dependencies are missing from multilib?

we get rid of lib32-qt3  because we didn't need it. if you want, just get qt3 PKGBUILD and adapt it for lib32 (look at examples on other lib32 from multilib)


Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.
