I note you had the same issue so wonder whether you can let me know how you were able to fix it please? Much obliged Ian
Are you using the new version 12.5 of crossover? That seems to survive an upgrade to 13.10 for me anyway.
No I'm not using Crossover at all. I have vanilla wine as there is 1 windows program on my computer (an educational one that my wife uses at the school where she works) and that has survived the upgrade. What I'm talking about is Teamviewer - it's a remote desktop application. It ships as a .deb file, but underneath it is a windows application packaged with it's own version of Wine: A bit like Picassa used to be when Google offered a Linux version. I imagine that the version of wine being shipped within the package will be pretty old and thus requires lib32asound2. If this change is being implemented across the Linux ecosystem I do hope someone's talking to the Teamviewer developers!
Okay, the answer was on the Teamviewer install page - it seems they know about it. The solution is to install the teamviewer.deb file, as opposed to the 64bit one. Problem solved!

Not a problem - thanks for showing an interest. As an aside, I have had pretty much the same experience with Google Earth today. The 64 bit deb file would not install due to missing ialibs32. Solved by installing the 32 bit package. Wonder how many more external programs will be affected by this.
As was said ia32-libs is gone, its not a "new issue" as no other distro has them anyways. Most the stuff now use a "multiarch" package meaning it can support both 32 and 64bits. What you have with Crossover is partly you jumping into a still in development release, the other problem is Crossover itself not using Multiarch and requiring the 32 bit only libraries, you "could" manually install them if it was really necessary but it's not advisable in any way.

Problem solved! Thanks a lot for this -- was struggling with the missing library and this did the trick for Teamviewer.
