CentOS - Jan 2012 - ia32-libs for 64 bit CentOS

Hi, 

I've been trying to install Zimbra Desktop 7 on CentOS 5.5 using the usual
perl script provided. The issue is, I get a warning that my system does not have
ia32 libs. I dug a bit on google and found out that 'there is no such
package as ia32 libs for Centos'. I also tried all the suggested work
arounds like glibc & stuff, can anyone shed more light on this?

Oh, the zimbra package is a .i686 package. Please help if you can. 

Regards, 
EK.

I think the package name is compat-libstdc++-33.i686 at least on Centos 6.X

Let me give you the complete picture so that you may undrstand the predicament
am in, the Zimbra collab. suite is completely open source, it has a desktop
version which is only available as a .i686 package. see it for yourself:

http://www.zimbra.com/downloads/zd-downloads.html 

i installed compat-libstdc++ but it still doesn't work . This is the error
message :

WARNING: ia32-libs is missing for x86_64 platform. This package is required to
run Zimbra Desktop on 64-bit Linux.

Please help.....

Otherwise, if it's open source then you should be able to download the
source
code and compile it for your system. 

Since I have no use for this thing myself I didn't bother to bookmark or
save
any references for it; in fact I may have been looking at something entirely 
different. Who knows? Check google and follow the first few links -- that's 
all I did.
