I'm having a frustrating problem. It is the same as posted by Ching Yi Tsai. When I
try to run lyx, I get the following message:
lyx: error in loading shared libraries
libc.so.5: cannot open shared object file:
No such file or directory
I am using Redhat 6.0 with all of the libraries and development libraries installed.
I have also installed Xforms. I have tried to compile the source myself and have
installed 1.0.4pre4 from Kayvan's rpms. Always the same message. I have run ldd
/usr/bin/lyx at Kayvan's suggestion, and I receive a message which states there is a
bug in ld.so. (I am away from my home computer right now, and do not have the entire
message). Knowing I was making a stupid move, I tried to replace ld.so with another
version of it and messed up a variety of library issues, so I spent last night
reinstalling the whole system from scratch. I thought maybe a fresh start would take
care of the lyx problem, but the same message came up. I have seen the message
suggesting ldconfig. How is that used? As should be evident by now, I know just
enough to get into trouble. Has anyone else run into this problem? Any ideas?
Thanks.
