| - | === An Application Cannot Find Libraries/Files === | ||
| - | |||
| - | == Symptoms == | ||
| - | |||
| - | * When run in a Terminal, an application fails with the message: | ||
| - | <code> [name]: error while loading shared libraries: [library].so.*: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory</code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | == Explanation == | ||
| - | |||
| - | The program is missing some files it needs to run. This is caused by the package information missing a reference to another, or not including the file. | ||
| - | |||
| - | == Solution == | ||
| - | |||
| - | Check if the file required is available in another package. Use the package manager (TazPkg) to search for the file: | ||
| - | * start the package manager | ||
| - | * 'Recharge' the package lists, if necessary | ||
| - | * click the "Search" tab | ||
| - | * in the //Search// box, enter the file-name ([library].so) and click "Files" | ||
| - | * install the package (pick that with the closest name if there is more than one) by double-clicking the entry and clicking //Install Package// | ||
| - | |||
| - | Alternatively, run the following command from a terminal: | ||
| - | <code>tazpkg search-pkgname library.so</code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | ... and install the appropriate package with: | ||
| - | <code> tazpkg get-install [package] </code> | ||
| - | |||
| - | If no packages are given, report this as a bug over at the [[http://labs.slitaz.org|Labs]] as it needs to be included, or the dependency removed during the build. | ||
