ELFCLASS32

Disappointing that Adobe would pass the buck

when their own documentation caused the problem...

The problem didn't manifest itself immediately, but eventually these things (among others) occurred.

When trying to upgrade firefox / chromium:

"dpkg: error processing xulrunner-1.9.2 (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 127
Errors were encountered while processing:
xulrunner-1.9.2"

$ /usr/lib/gnome-panel/clock-applet (trying to launch clock applet)

"error while loading shared libraries: libplc4.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32"

"error while loading shared libraries: libplds4.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32"

In my case, all I had to do was:

"sudo aptitude reinstall libnspr4-0d"

Hope this helps somebody else.

Thanks for letting us know what worked for you.  Hopefully this info helps others.  I'll also pass this along to the Linux team for their review.

Hi,

Seems like you had accidently overwritten your 64 bit libraries by 32 bit libraries. That is why it is recommended to extract the 32 bit libraries using file-roller in the folder /usr/lib32, instead of installing the packages directly.
