Hmm. My best bet is that the whole (i386) package needs to be installed,
which is called libgomp1. The is an util called apt-file which helps you
find which package contains a specific file - not sure this solves the
problem, though.
Also, getlibs seems to always do the "install? Y/n?" even when it doesn't
install anything at the end.
