Linux -m32 gcc compiling now working

[JC0133]

I keep trying to compile a program I am running in linux using -m32.


I keep getting this error.

gcc -g -m32 encrypt.c -o encrypt
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/6/libgcc.a when searching for -lgcc
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgcc
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/6/libgcc.a when searching for -lgcc
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgcc
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Makefile:3: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 1

I googled and learned that running this command should fix it.
sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib g++-multilib

but I am still getting the same errors.

I also did a gcc and g++ upgrade following these instructions to see if that would fix it

Try installing libc6-dev-i386. https://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/compile-32bit-application-using-gcc-64-bit-linux.html

This isn't a compile error it is a link error. You need to install i32 bit version of the libraries.
