you are sure you called /usr/bin/kicad ? Even the buildd have noch such installation folder so I assume you have some local build or alias what maybe conflict with teh regular installation. > could not be loaded > Perhaps a shared library (.dll or .so) file is missing. > - From command line: argv[0]: > '/usr/local/bin/kicad' ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ > from /home/---/Downloads/kicad-4.0.4/common/kiway.cpp : KiFACE() : line 225 How do you start KiCad? What is /usr/bin/kicad? A symlink to something different location? Did you modify your PATH environment?

Please inspect you local environment, I'm pretty sure you have some modified locally so the calls not working correctly. Regards Carsten
