I have similar problem in Interpid. When trying to run firefox, It throws this error message:
/usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/i386/linux/npviewer.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libxcb-render-util.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
This problem started after some todays updates. The same happens with epiphany and 32bit swiftweasel

It seems that the 32bit version of libxcb-render-util.so.0 is missing in 64bit Interpid?

It can be solved using

I'm reposting my message relevant to the new library requirements and flash 10:

Stephen,

Here's the output from the latest Flash 10 RC plugin, wrapped and unwrapped. I am also attaching file listing the packages that contain the refequired libraries, so you can check what's missing.

I'm confirming this issue, getlibs gives me nothing, and I can't find it in the repo either.

Niels & all,

Using GetLibs is an unofficial workaround. It's available here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=474790

This will be fixed officially in ia32-libs (which will probably appear tomorrow).

Hope it gets fixed soon, because ever since I updated earlier today (it dragged in a new ia32-libs), I'm unable to use Skype, Firefox 32 Bit, Flash, Prism (32 bit) and Unreal Tournament....glad it's already been reported and being worked on :)

Downgrading to the ia32-libs from hardy-upgrades works fine for me, and,
until this is fixed, could be considered a solution. Just d/l it to your
box and then dpkg -i on it.

Juanillo its a very possibile you are not seeing the same bug or you are not fully up to date. Can you please file a new bug against ia32-libs and add all version info including Ubuntu version version of ia32-libs and flash plugin where did you obtain flash version? can you also please add dpkg output on what you see when you try to install it, including the command you used.
