Trying to install i386 package libc6:i386 on Raspberry Pi 3 B+ fails












1















The end goal is to get my Raspberry Pi to work as a print server providing AirPrint for a Brother DCP-195C printer they already have.



I'm trying to follow this answer on how to achive that.



So I already got to the point of where I installed the printer driver, but since that is only provided in compiled form for 32bit x86. So I tried to install Qemu to be able to use those.



I'm getting stuck on

How can I either make this work or is there another way to get the printer working?

  • Why can't libgcc1:i386 be installed (first)?

  • I added aptitude output.

  • The RaspPi has an ARM architecture, not i386. To be able to install libraries for multiple architectures on Debian, you need the multiarch version of some packages (in particular dpkg and apt). If it's a dependency problem, use aptitude, and see what exactly the problem is, and if you need to upgrade some (seemingly unrelated) packages.

  • dpkg is multiarch for sure: dpkg --print-foreign-architecturesprints i386 I'm not sure how to check with apt. And as you can see above I provided aptitude output and if I understand it correctly it tells me the i386 versions can't be installed because of the arm versions of the same packages.
