I find this extremely strange because it would mean there's a bug in a library but for some reason it's happening and I can't seem to fix it. All software which uses the GNUstep libraries is broken in 10.10 and 10.04, it segfaults upon launch.

How do I know what libraries I'll need for a 32 bit app which I want to install on a 64 bit version of Ubuntu?
eg. imageshack app is currently available as 32 version, cant install it on 64 bit OS.
I have a library that I have ported from Windows, and is not a derivative work of Linux. The library is subject to copyright law, and I can't disclose the source. I would like to link a GPL application to this library, and want to know if the linking would cause the library to be GPL. If the library becomes GPL, is there some other way (kernel loadable module?) that I can keep my library from becoming a work of GPL?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI was trying to install Audacious 2.5 which required new libraries:gdk-pixbuf-2.22.1
glib-2.28.6
gtk+-2.24.4
libmowgli-60e2589fc14e
pango-1.28.4
I performed the following commands to build them:
Code:
./configure
make
sudo make install
I rebooted and now my current window/icon theme is missing and gives the following error:
This theme will not look as intended because the required GTK+ theme 'eco' is not installed". If I look at synaptic, it shows it as being installed (see screenshot). How do I go about rolling back the library updates I made? I tried reinstalling the themes from synaptic but so far no luck.
My recent borked upgrade to -current inspired me to try to come up with a way to sanity-check the lib and bin dirs for broken library symlinks (possibly indicating missing libs) and for binaries and libraries that belong to no installed package, as well as missing dependencies.
This script is the result.
I've checked the script results manually, and it appears to be accurate, so I figured I'd post it here for a second opinion, and/or because others may find it useful too. I'm not aware of another popular method of doing this on Slackware, so here it is:
Code:
So I've heard that GNUstep has finally been ported to Fedora with the latest release... I've wanted to try it out mostly out of curiosity as it has an indirect relationship with OS X . So I go and install GNUstep/related packages and WindowMaker... and I can't access any of the GNUstep applications, turns out I need GWorkspace to really make use of GNUstep. YUM and PackageKit both turn up nothing, so I was wondering if there's a way to install GWorkspace on Fedora? Or, for that matter, any way to access the GNUstep applications at all, I can't seem to find them anywhere...
View 8 Replies View RelatedThe background to the problem. I was dangerous, not deadly or elite and I want to be that way again. The best representation that I have found is oolite. Now this installs by auto-package but only in 32-bit and I find auto-package a bit of a pain. I have the windows version installed and running under wine but would prefer a compiled 64-bit Slackware package.
Oolite requires gnu-step so I have downloaded the source and some old (12.2) slackbuilds, which I have modified, and made a package for gnustep-make. The next stage is to make a package for gnustep-base however it is failing with the following error
Code:
./configure: line 1390: gnustep-config: command not found
configure: error: cannot run /bin/sh /tmp/SBo/gnustep-base-1.18.0/config.sub
Why many Linux distros are trying to use always the latest versions of the libraries and don't save the old libraries for compatibility? I mean, I can see libtiff for example, i can found a libtiff.so.5 on my /usr/lib, but doesn't store a libtiff.so.4 or 3 just for binary applications or games. For this example, I need libtiff.so.4 for uplink.
That should happen too on the old version of sims for linux, some ID games or others.What's wrong with storing old libraries? PD: Yay, my first post on 3 years!
Is there any way to use a dynamic libraries as a static libraries instead when compiling, so that my resulting executable won't have them as dependencies?

I was having a problem with a fresh 11.04 install and the VPN software I use for work. I found the fix was to upgrade the software, so I downloaded an RPM, converted it to .deb and installed it via dpkg. The install worked and the VPN software now works, but Package Manager says I have a broken package and wants to 'upgrade' to the older broken one. How can I fix this without breaking my VPN SW again?

It seems to me that if I could download every single development library or dependency available for Linux/Ubuntu, that it would make my life a whole lot easier as for as acquiring software. All I would have to do then is run configure/make/make install which isn't that bad.
The problem being here that the repositories in Ubuntu suck. In fact, they suck in all Linux distributions. The only things they are good for is gathering dependencies needed to compile programs. All the packages that I actually want are frozen and therefore are outdated and useless. I've had to learn how to compile stuff just so I could get the programs working like they do in Windows. Except in Windows all I had to do was double click on the file and not spend hours figuring out what to do.
Then of course there is the other problem that about 90% of the software I need is not included in these repositories.
Have Linux people not heard of the Internet? The ultimate repository? It sure works well in Windows.
Anyway, if there is a way to download all these files in one go (because let's face it, I'll have them all downloaded eventually) I would like to know how. Even if they take up 100's of gigs it would be worth it for the savings in time and energy.
After I downloaded the source for lua, I followed the install instructions, doing...

Installing from sources was always complicated to me, but biggest problem is installing when some strange dependencies are "missing". Let's do it on example - I am sure it will benefit lots of users.I have a unmodified ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) on 64 bir architecture. I download latest Grisbi sources from official web page.I didn't modify any paths to system variables...and it's usually problem with glib or gtk with all other sources I try to install.
1) Could someone help me in this particular case with missing dependencies please?
2) What every User should do when trying to install from source and some libraries are missing?How to find them? How to install them ?
I'm using the FortiClient SSL VPN free version provided by my University. I can't get tech support from the university OR Fortigate. I have it running on one system, but I have no idea what the sequence of libraries I installed was. I need it to run on a second machine. pstree is only telling me that the FortiClient ssl daemon depends on pppd. I need to know how to find out what else it's using: LibPKCS and the like.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to set up ubuntu 10.10 on a computer WITHOUT Internet access.I also need to install a package on it but it has several dependant libraries (eg libX11-dev)If i just have the names of those libraries & the package, where can i find them, so that they can be downloaded onto a pendrive & then installed onto the comp? (What would a library file look like after download?)
Also after i have copied the files onto the other comp (assuming that it was possible), how do i install the library? Would synaptics recognise that i have installed this library if done manually by this method?
My principle machine is Ubuntu 10.10 (x86_64) with gcc version 4.4.5, but I'd like to run the compiled/linked code from it on a RHEL server release 5.4 with gcc version 4.1.2.
Now, the error at runtime is "version 'GLIBCXX_3.4.9' is not found (required by ./executable)". The server has /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.8, but seems to need at least .so.6.0.9. However, the admin of the server will not allow the libraries to be updated as "the entire system is tied to an older version of glibc and forcing an upgrade could break the entire system especially when making the jump across major revisions."
He recommended that I build the newer version of glibc in my home directory and link against the libraries, but didn't offer direction on how.

Just curious how you can add libraries to /lib from the command line. My box just has a server distribution on it, so I obviously can't use synaptic. I downloaded a .tar.gz file for the libraries I need, and I assumed that you would use dpkg -i <packagename.tar.gz> but that doesn't seem to work.

I'm dual-booting Ubuntu and Windows 7, and I have all my music files on an external hard drive that I read from both OSes. When in Windows 7, I use iTunes as my music player. Does anyone know of a way to keep the ratings, primarily, and play counts as a bonus quest, synced between iTunes and a Linux music player, whether it's Rhythmbox, Banshee, Amarok, or some other player. This is the number one feature I'd like so I'll switch to using almost any music player if I can have this.
If there's a way to import ratings from iTunes that's a start, but that's more of a one time thing. I might be able to write a script that does this importing regularly but what I'd really like is a seamless way to keep the ratings between the two music players synced. I know I can use Amarok or Banshee on Windows and that might make what I'm trying to do easier, but for other reasons I need to keep using iTunes on Windows.
