Hello, I had a problem running Inkscape (see details below) due to libraries not being called what the program expects. I tried upgrading the Inkscape and relevant library packages, but no difference. In the end I created symlinks to the files which Inkscape couldn't find and now it works. Where do I report this problem? Do I write to the package maintainer (Tobias Kieslich in this case, but I don't have an e-mail address for him). (If the person concerned reads this, I've put the details below)
Thanks, Steve I had the following error when trying to run Inkscape v 0.43-2: inkscape: error while loading shared libraries: libgnutls.so.12: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I upgraded to Inkscape v 0.44-1, and still the same error, so I searched who the library belongs to and it belongs to package gnutls logically enough. Checked the list of files included in the latest version of gnutls package: http://www.archlinux.org/packages/files/4104/ but it doesn't include libgnutls.so.12, but a later one so I made a symbolic link: # cd /usr/lib && ln -s libgnutls.so.13 libgnutls.so.12 Trying to run Inkscape then gave the error: inkscape: error while loading shared libraries: libtasn1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Same thing, I checked if it's part of the package: http://www.archlinux.org/packages/files/4129/ but it's not there either, so again I created a symlink to it: # cd /usr/lib && ln -s libtasn1.so.3 libtasn1.so.2 Now inkscape works. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
