Android Studio Installation -Unable to run mksdcard SDK tool. on 32 bit Ubuntu 12.10

Question

So, I am trying to install Android Studio in

OS : UBUNTU 12.10, 32 bit.

And I tried installing it for 3-4 times each time it got stuck due to slow internet connection and showing Connection Lost in the terminal.

Now , this time when I again did

./studio.sh

it shows

Unable to run mksdcard SDK tool. One common reason for this failure is missing required libraries Please fix the underlying issue and retry.

I saw various posts which shows this occurs in 64 bit OS and installing libraries using

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

or

sudo apt-get install lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 lib32stdc++6

will install required 32 bit libraries , but I am already on a 32 bit OS .

and when I try above command , I get

E: Package 'ia32-libs' has no installation candidate.

Software center also shows negative result:

So, the point is has anyone came across this in a 32 bit UBUNTU 12.10 OS . Any workaround will be greatly appreciated .

Edit 1 Output when I try to install mentioned libraries for Ubuntu.

In above output it is mentioned that package may be available from another source ...can someone please help , what that source may be ?

Is it possible to compile these libraries from source . If so , how can I do it ?

Thanks.

For me the answer was here http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/linux-32-bit-libraries

At the time of this answer, the required libraries are

$ sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 lib32z1

Good luck!
