during installation of BACCardI (genome assembly validation software), in the final step, we get an error: <baccardi.bin:error while loading shared libraries libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory>

so, to fix it, we tried installing the i386 libqt using command < sudo apt-get install libqt3-mt_3.3.6-1ubuntu3_i386>

But, now we get:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package libqt3-mt_3.3.6-1ubuntu3_i386
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'libqt3-mt_3.3.6-1ubuntu3_i386'

please please help..........please
