What seemed to be the core issue (at least for me) was that I did not have a 32 bit version of gtk2.0 installed.
For ubuntu based distros, do apt install libgtk2.0-0:i386, for arch (according to this so contributor) do yaourt -S lib32-libgtkhtml
apt install libgtk2.0-0:i386
yaourt -S lib32-libgtkhtml
