Element 3.x build missing stubs-32.h
Q: Trying to build Element 3.2.x for the first time, and hitting this compile error:
Making liblinx.a
In file included from /usr/include/features.h:359,
from /usr/include/assert.h:37,
from linx.c:31:
/usr/include/gnu/stubs.h:7:27: error: gnu/stubs-32.h: No such file or directory

/home/jmir/Element/Releases/3.2.0/element_3.2.0/3party/linx/linux-x86_64/linx-
2.2.2/liblinx
A: Google is your friend. Your 64-bit system was installed without (optional) 386 support. The LINX team decided a while ago that, on 64-bit hosts, liblinx.a shall be built in both 32- and 64-bit versions. So you are on the hook for 32-bit, if you don't want to change the way LINX builds. The easiest way to get through this is to add glibc for 386:
$ yum install glibc-devel.i386

A: This time, google is not your friend. The "native-linux-x86_64" object directories are normal and desired in this case, but the compile error is somewhat misleading. After adding 32-bit support you should "make clean" and start over.
