Thanks for the clarification.
>> Did you try looking at what's available in your repositories with
zypper?
Seem to be that some of the packages are available. As per the link
https://www.suse.com/releasenotes/x8...SP2/#id2515820
it seem to be that its a complicated approach to compile 32 bit in SUSE enterprise 12 (x86_64) system
>>Have you tried compiling, say a c code, with
gcc -m32 name_of_source.c
Yes I tried that. It does not work.
>>Have you considered installing openSuSE 12 in a VM?
No. I did not do that. Our requirement is to support our plugin (on Apache) in SUSE Enterprise Linux 12. If SUSE does not support SUSE Enterprise Linux 12 X86_32 , we may not need to support Apache 32 bit as well..
