Ifort in Fedora 11

I am trying to install ifort 11.0.083 64 bits in a Fedora 11 x86_64, and as usual, it asks for some 32 bits libraries, but when I try to install these libraries, for example, glibc.i586, ifort doesn't recognize it and asks for it again. Do the libraries need to be i386? Because Fedora 11 doesn't have then anymore. Is there a solution for this problem?

32-bit glibc shouldn't be a dependency, if you are installing only the Intel64 compiler. You will need a full installation of 64-bit g++. It would be a dependency for the optional 32-bit compiler installation. There shouldn't be any 32-bit library dependency for the 64-bit compiler except possibly the compat-libstdc++. This is called out in Ron's article posted at the top of the forum. Note that Ron recommended ifort 11.1 for Fedora 10 or newer, and Fedora 11 may still need some luck.
I would expect the Sun jre 1.6 (specifically, the x86_64 version) to be needed to support idb, with 'which java' reporting a symlink to the 64-bit Sun jre. Note also that the help button on idb requires the symlink so that "mozilla" starts Firefox or equivalent.
