         sudo apt - get install libc6 : i386

Before installing ia32-libs with the source:

sudo - i
cd / etc / apt / sources . List . d
echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ main restricted universe multiverse raring"  > ia32 - libs - raring . List
apt - get Update
apt - get install ia32 - libs

Problem on Wireshark Dissector installation

After run make, the make command output is ( in 'openflow/utilities/wireshark_dissectors/openflow' directory):

  
 In file included from /usr/include/glib-2.0/glib/galloca.h:34:0,
                  from /usr/include/glib-2.0/glib.h:32,
                  from packet-openflow.c:19:
 /usr/include/glib-2.0/glib/gtypes.h:34:24: fatal error: glibconfig.h: File or directory ot found
 compilation terminated.
 make: ** [packet-openflow.o] Erro 1

Solution:

openflow at ubuntu:~$ find /usr -name glibconfig.h
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include/glibconfig.h

On Ubuntu, adding `pkg-config --cflags glib-2.0` (note backquotes), 

or the output of said command, to CFLAGS, should fix it. Otherwise, just make sure you pass in the correct include directory.

i.e. 

-I/usr/include/glib-2.0

-I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include

add above 2 lines in Makefile (openflow/utilities/wireshark_dissectors/openflow), under CFLAGS
