Thanks for the guide… I am getting this message after running the getlibs command on my ubuntu 12.10 64 bit. I already have the modified files for notes and sametime ready but I think I need to fix this first before I proceed… Please note that I AM running using sudo getlibs but its looking for /lib32 i belive instead of /usr/lib32 maybe…

with reference to my earlier post, I noticed that there was a /lib64 but no /lib32 so I created that directory and moved fine till here….
:~/LN853install$ sudo sed -i ‘s/gcc -Wall -Wextra `pkg/gcc -Wall -Wextra -m32 `pkg/g’
bash: pkg/gcc: No such file or directory
sed: invalid option — ‘W’
Kind of stuck here now….
2012/11/20 at 12:03 |
sudo sed -i ‘s/gcc -Wall -Wextra `pkg/gcc -Wall -Wextra -m32 `pkg/g’
Try the above and change the quote before s/gcc to one that is vertical and the same with the one that is after /g since WordPress thrashes my quotes and changes them to something else.

Thanks for the quick reply….
I have this message now… I am working in the same directory.
/LN853install$ sudo sed -i ‘s/gcc -Wall -Wextra `pkg/gcc -Wall -Wextra -m32 `pkg/g’
sed: no input files
2013/01/30 at 08:48 |
Try with:
sudo sed -i ‘s/gcc -Wall -Wextra `pkg/gcc -Wall -Wextra -m32 `pkg/g’ ./Makefile
2012/11/21 at 15:16 |
I had to use Makefile on the same command above instead of a newline… fixed that and completed the guide… trying to startup lotus notes now….
2012/11/25 at 06:26 |
Notes is not launching, I have tried firing it up from the dash and even copying the notes wrapper from LN853install folder to /opt/ibm/lotus/notes… it giving the same error as noted below…
/opt/ibm/lotus/notes$ ./notes-wrapper /opt/ibm/lotus/notes/notes: error while loading shared libraries: libgnomevfs-2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
2012/11/26 at 20:39 |
ln -s /usr/lib32/i386-linux-gnu/libgnomevfs-2.so.0 /opt/ibm/lotus/notes/
2012/11/26 at 20:41 |
I added this also:
ln -s /usr/lib32/i386-linux-gnu/* /opt/ibm/lotus/notes/
and
ln -s /lib32/i386-linux-gnu/libpopt.so.0 /opt/ibm/lotus/notes/

Hi, thanks for the nice guide!
I have tested this with notes 9 open beta. The installation works perfect so far. The first time I start it there opens the license agreement in a terminal, which I agree with 1. After that notes just doesn’t start. Do you have some experience with notes 9 on 12.10 x64 already ?
Best Regards, Michael
