I have been trying to get adb, fastboot, avd and others to work with the latest version of Linux Mint (16 "Petra")
I originally got this error when trying to run ADB:
➜ platform-tools ./adb
./adb: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
After looking around I found suggestions saying that you need to install 32-bit compatibility libraries.
So, I tried to install the package ia32-libs, which, however, failed horribly.
➜ ~ sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

Any help would be very much appreciated.
EDIT: After following Rmano's suggestion to run this: sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libgcc1:i386 gcc-4.6-base:i386 libstdc++5:i386 I got this error about unmet dependencies:

EDIT 2: It seems that I have to downgrade to an older version of a view core utils, however, I'm not sure that it is a safe idea.
