    You need x86 compiler (how to install depends on your Linux distribution, on Ubuntu 14.04 it is g++-4.8:i386) and x86 Qt (http://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/5.5/5.5.1/qt-opensource-linux-x86-5.5.1.run) and probably some other libraries as x86.
    As alternative you can set up an x86 Linux either directly on a PC or in a virtual machine, then install Qt there.

      @jsulm If after I installed it, I was able to use it? What else might need libraries?

        If you installed it try to build your application and see what happens.
        I don't know which other libraries may be needed. You will see it if you build/run your application.

          One tip: if you're using Ubuntu then you should install build-essential:i386 package.

            @jsulm What has the build-essential depends? If it has anything to be installed?

              Before asking such questions you actually could just try to install the package:
              apt-get install build-essential:i386

                You can use -s parameter to see what is going to happen if you install the package without installing it:
                apt-get install -s build-essential:i386

                  @jsulm To be honest, I've never tried to install it, but it is not installed, which I can only notification. The following notification that I can:
                  Reading package lists... Done
                  Building dependency tree
                  Reading state information... Done
                  Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
                  requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
                  distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
                  or been moved out of Incoming.
                  The following information may help to resolve the situation:

                  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
                  build-essential:i386 : Depends: libc6-dev:i386 but it is not going to be installed or
                  libc-dev:i386
                  Depends: gcc:i386 (>= 4:4.4.3) but it is not going to be installed
                  Depends: g++:i386 (>= 4:4.4.3) but it is not going to be installed
                  Depends: make:i386 but it is not going to be installed
                  E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

                    OK. Forget it.
                    I'm not sure why but if you try to install it (or g++ for x86) then the package manager wants to remove x86_64 version!
                    This is really bad, it should be possible to install both version in parallel but it isn't.
                    So, probably it will be easier to install a x86 Ubuntu (for example in a virtual machine).

                      @jsulm Lol, then do not make it more complicated? Complicated in the sense should be used only to compile the first virtual course?

                          @Renn Sorry, I typo. I mean if you want to build the binary 32bit it must use a virtual machine.

                            Well, you don't have to use a virtual machine, but then you have to set up x86 development environment on your x86_64 machine.

                                The point is: either you use a x86 Linux to build your application for x86 or you have to set up x86 compiler and x86 Qt on your x86_64 machine.
