Installing new apps with pkg system
I am having trouble installing any program.
For example, i could download the audacity package, run 'pkg add audacity-2.05-x86_64-1.tlz' and the audacity icon will appear under multimedia in my applications menu. I will then click on the icon, but nothing will happen. The program does not start. I also tested with libreoffice. I am pretty sure I have thoroughly read through dragora's manuals, especially with the pkg system. If I am missing something, please forgive me, I am really interested in a libre distro such as this and learning to really maintain one. Your help is greatly appreciated. |
Installing new apps with pkg system
You could try to launch the app from the command line and see if there's useful message displayed.
|
'bash-4.2$ audacity'
'audacity: error while loading shared libraries: libwx_gtk2u_richtext-2.8.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory' This is what I get... |

You're missing (at least) a dependency : wxWidget
Install it then retry. |
wxWidget just installed.
didn't solve the problem.. |
Installing new apps with pkg system
So what's the error now shown?
Did you checked the version of the lib? |
I think the dependency you need is:
wxgtk2.8 If you are using the Audacity package from my stable repo all the required dependencies should be located at http://gungre.ch/dragora/repo/frusen/stable/ Install wxgtk2.8, retry to launch in xterm, and if it's complaining about another dependency, check the stable repo. |
