Cannot execute 32-bit binary on 64-bit device

[ViRb3]

My device is running Android 8.1, arm64v8. I have a binary compiled for arm32v7. Whenever I try to execute it via Termux, it gives me this error:

CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE "/path/to/targetBinary": "/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/libtermux-exec.so" is 64-bit instead of 32-bit

This works on other terminal emulators, since 32-bit is fully compatible with 64-bit.
Thanks!

libtermux-exec.so is 64bit, it is loaded through LD_PRELOAD.
Unset LD_PRELOAD before running your binary and it will succeed.

Thanks! Is there any way to unset the variable automatically/every time I start a terminal?

Edit your .bash_profile is the default answer. If your 🐚 shell isn't default, edit the appropriate dot file.

@SDRausty Cheers! If anyone is wondering, the default home directory /data/data/com.termux/files/home works perfectly.
