Reviving/ rehashing an old post of mine so that the information is in a single place:
To run genpuid on Ubuntu 9.10 or greater you need to install an old C library: libstdc++5_3.3.6-18_i386.deb. A copy is available for download '*here*' (http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=0f8624a0d2d20da7d45e235cb6e824f2c8cca860f84066ebc81041a3fc51d567). *Don't try to take a shortcut by installing the .deb - Karmic uses a later version of the C++ library and you will end up with conflicts on your system.* Open the .deb using archive manager and extract it to a subfolder. Inside the subfolder you'll find a file called data.tar.gz Extract data.tar.gz to a subfolder inside this subfolder you'll find a folder called usr/lib inside this subfolder you'll find two files: libstdc++.so.5 ( <- symbolic link to libstdc++.so.5.0.7 ) libstdc++.so.5.0.7 ( <- the file you're actually after ) delete the symbolic link and rename libstdc++.so.5.0.7 to libstdc++.so.5 Finally, move libstdc++.so.5 to /usr/lib That's it, GenPUID will now run without issue. For 64 bit systems all you need do in addition to the instructions above is the following: Code: -------------------- sudo apt-get install ia32-libs -------------------- -- audiomuze *'Linux finally gets a great audio tagger' (http://www.ubuntugeek.com/linux-finally-gets-a-great-audio-tagger.html): 'puddletag' (http://puddletag.sourceforge.net/)* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ audiomuze's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33613 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94389 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
