Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

When trying to execute the installation bin , I get this error in a popup

Failed to locate 32-bit system libraries required for installation to continue:

libc6-i386

For more information on how to install these, please visit: URL

I have followed what is stated in the above URL(http://software-dl.ti.com/ccs/esd/documents/ccsv8_linux_host_support.html

As you can see libc6:i386 is already installed, but your installer doesn't seem to find it.

It is interesting that it is complaining about libc6-i386 instead of libc6:i386. I thought you just need the latter.

Can you try installing the former?

Thanks

Can you try installing CCSv9?

I am installing it just now on my Ubuntu 18.04LTS laptop. It seems to be installing fine so far

You are on Ubuntu 18.10, not 18.04LTS. I do not believe we validated CCS on 18.10. I will need to check.

I think this is a UBUNTU release bug which is incorrectly showing the version to be 18.04LTS,. When the system boots up, the flash screen is showing 18.10. I will close this, for time being windows it is...
