Hi there.

A few weeks ago i updated my Ubuntu system, from 10.04 (Lucid) to 12.04 
(Precise). Today i tried to execute liquidsoap, and it returned this error:

"liquidsoap: error while loading shared libraries: libao.so.2: cannot open 
shared object file: No such file or directory"

Reinstalling the liquidsoap package didn't resolved it, and any "libao" package 
was already installed.
The problem seems to be in the package "libao2": 12.04 comes with "libao4", and 
"libao2" is no longer compatible. 

Fortunatelly, i've solved this very easy: checking the "files installed" tab on 
the "libao4" package in Synaptic, you can see there's a "libao.so.4" file 
installed. If you go to the dir of the file with a console, and do "sudo cp 
libao.so.4 libao.so.2" (that is, to copy the ".4" file as if it were a ".2" 
version), Liquidsoap is back again!  \o/

I guess the real solution is some kind of recompilation, but hope this little 
trick may be useful to somebody else.


Cheers,
Daniel.
