This is a bug in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
The application Regina (installed through the package regina-normal)
will not start.
The problem seems to be that it is linked against the graphviz plugins,
which moved location (thus the executable can no longer find the
libraries that it links against). The fix is simply to rebuild regina-
normal, with no changes needed to the source.
- To reproduce:
+ [Test Case]
- Install the package regina-normal;
- At a command line, type "regina-gui".
The application crashes with the message: "regina-gui: error while
loading shared libraries: libgvplugin_core.so.6: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory"
+
+ [Where problems could occur]
+
+ It can't get much worse than how it is currently (not starting at all).
+

+ From original description:
Rebuilding regina-normal against the current Ubuntu 18.04 LTS causes the
executable to be linked correctly, and the problem is fixed.
This problem does *not* affect Ubuntu 18.10. It is only present in
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
I would be grateful if someone could please rebuild regina-normal on
18.04 and upload this to bionic-updates, and/or include the rebuild in
the next point release (I presume 18.04.2).
Thanks - Ben.
