Thank you very much.
I've installed all libraries needed but when I run the script it always
says:

Sorry, Autopackage only supports x86 32-bit systems, or 64-bit systems with
compatibility libraries installed. Please install the compatibility
libraries and rerun install

I've tried to run the bin extracted but it does not work.
It is bothering me I leave.
