Bug Description

On an amd64 architecture system without lsb-core installed, download lmutil_x64_lsb.tar.gz from http://www.globes.com/support/fnp_utilities_download.htm
Extract the file from the archive, mark it executable and then attempt to execute it:

$ ./lmutil
bash: ./lmutil: No such file or directory

The error message should be more informative, for example:

This program requires 'lsb-core' which is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo apt-get install lsb-core
