Synaptic displays and installs 64-bit packages by default
Originally created by @jzakiya on #11820 (Redmine)
I am able to install Tail 2.6 on my laptop (new System76 Gazelle, I7,
16GB)
from USB, and then install apps from synaptic, and run them, such as
htop.
I also have installed Tail 2.6 on the same laptop in VirtualBox 5.1.6
(latest)
but installed apps will not run. (I have never encountered this problem
before.)
Example:
I installed htop from synaptic and get the following error in the terminal.
amnesia@amnesia:~$ htop
bash: /usr/bin/htop: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
In get a similar problem when I installed and ran Ruby.
