@Corona688. Good point. I'm running a 64-bit live Debian. I'll try with a 32-bit live Debian.
Or you could just install the correct libraries.

Thanks everyone for the help.
I have rebooted on a debian-live-7.7.0-i386-standard.iso and it seems to solve the issue but I immediately ran into another problem:
Code:
Error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.
You must install the Linux compatibility libraries.
To install the compatibility libraries, use the following command:
"rpm -ih compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3.i386.rpm"

So I downloaded the package and ran it :
Code:
wget ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/www.whiteboxlinux.org/whitebox/4/en/os/i386/WhiteBox/RPMS/compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3.i386.rpm
rpm -ih compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3.i386.rpm

A new error arrose :
Code:
rpm: RPM should not be used directly install RPM packages, use Alien instead!
rpm: However assuming you know what you are doing...
warning: compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 73307de6: NOKEY

        libm.so.6 is needed by compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3.i386

Surprisingly, the requested files ARE on the system (/sbin/ldconfig, libc.so.6, libgcc_s.so.1 and libm.so.6).
What could be the problem then. Any thoughts?

You are trying to install a package from whitebox linux, a redhat-based distribution that's been defunct for almost a decade, on modern debian. That's not going to work.

Find the equivalent package for your distribution.

Also, you should probably follow the advice above and use the proper package manager for your distribution instead of forcing RPM's by hand.

Furthermore, now that you know what's missing, you may have more luck getting it to work in 64-bit.
