A different method occurred to me: I went into YAST and changed the
lib file to the 32 bit version from the 64 bit that was installed.
Then, I deleted the link to the 64 bit version.
After that, I was able to install the rpm that had SimpleLabeler in it
(from Lightscribe)
However, when I attempted to run SimpleLabeler, I just got the logo
blinking for some time before stopping.
After I discovered the location of SimpleLabeler (/opt/
LightscribeApplications/SimpleLabeler)
I found an executable file by that name. So far, so good, but it would
not execute, either as user or as root.
Here are the the permissions, which partially elude me (the "s" part):
-rwsr-x root wheel
So near, and yet so far ---
