The thread that needs to be written is: Q: How does someone install Scrivener on the latest 64-bit Ubuntu. > [@garpu](#): > > Are you running 64 bit or 32 bit? 64 bit Ubuntu 13.10. > [@garpu](#): > > You’ll need the 32 bit libraries, if you’re 64 bit. Yes. I know. That’s the problem. But, the bigger problem is that I don’t know HOW to resolve this installation issue. It doesn’t mean a whole lot to say “you need 64-bit libraries” if I don’t really even know what a “library” is. 🙂 > [@garpu](#): > > There have been a few threads further back in this forum about installing them on the latest version of Ubuntu. Of course I googled BEFORE I posted. Nobody (to my knowledge) has the exact error that I have. Of course, I saw all those threads. That’s where all the commands in my original posts came from. So, the real question is: Q: How does someone install Scrivener on the latest 64-bit Ubuntu. Note: I’ve already read the following (and tried all that they suggested that I understood). - [A Mostly Complete Guide to Installing Scrivener on Linux](https://forum.literatureandlatte.com/t/a-mostly-complete-guide-to-installing-scrivener-on-linux/19819/1) - [When I run Scrivener in 13.10 I get the following](https://forum.literatureandlatte.com/t/when-i-run-scrivener-in-13-10-i-get-the-following/24413/1) - [Scrivener not working on Ubuntu 13.10](https://forum.literatureandlatte.com/t/scrivener-not-working-on-ubuntu-13-10/24068/1) etc. What we need, and I could write, once I figure out the answer (with help), is pretty much this: - How to install Scrivener on the latest 64-bit Ubuntu --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.literatureandlatte.com/t/scrivener-will-never-install-on-the-current-64-bit-ubuntu/24398)._
