libtommath library cant be found / installation abort
------------------------------------------------------
Key: CORE-6352
URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-6352
Project: Firebird Core
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Installation
Affects Versions: 4.0 Beta 2
Environment: Virtual machine Ubuntu 20.04 x86_64 / Installation
Firebird4.0 beta
Reporter: Fredi Niklaus
Preparing steps:
1. downlaod package Firebird-4.0.0.1436-Beta1.i686
2. unpacking tar (directory /opt/firebird)
The start of sudo ./install.sh ends after "Press Enter to start installation"
with
"Please install required library 'libtommath' before firebird, after it repeat
firebird install"
After search in found the issue CORE-5445 and other pages
Steps to solve :
1. Installed libtommath (sudo apt-get -y install libtommath1)
Checked logs -> no error, (but amd64-Version?)
2. made two new simlink to libtommath.so.1.0.1
(one as /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtommath.so.0
and one as /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtommath.so.1)
3. tried to start installation firebird -> aborted with same error
4. added new simlink to libtommath.so.1.0.1 into installation directory
5. tried to start installation firebird -> aborted with same error
As far as i see, these are all options i have.
Others told, they are able to run the installation after the simlink's . In my
case, the error is still pending.
(I never get to the point where i can set a password.)
