How to Install Eagle 6.5.0 in Ubuntu 14.04 64 Bit

If you download CadSoft Eagle ready to install it on your new Ubuntu installation so you can design some PCBs you'll run into an issue. It doesn't work and the error message isn't helpful. You'll see something similar to;

eagle-lin-6.5.0.run: /tmp/eagle-setup.2645/eagle-6.5.0/bin/eagle: not found

What this actually means is that you're missing the required 32bit libraries to run both Eagle and it's setup program.

You can install the required packages like so;

sudo apt-get install libxrender1:i386 libxrandr2:i386 libxcursor1:i386 libfreetype6:i386 libfontconfig1:i386 libxi6:i386 libpng12-0:i386 libstdc++6:i386 libjpeg62:i386 libssl1.0.0:i386

Once you've done that you'll be able to install and run Eagle.
