[B]Shared libraries problem, help please[/B]

turalo · 12-25-2005, 10:23 AM

It seems that this problem has somthing to do with sharedlibraries. after I restarted fedora, nothing changed, so I installed the realplayer with rpm manager. after that I tryd to play some music, but it still didnot work. and when I try to start realplyer in shell it says
"[root@localhost bin]# realplay
/usr/local/RealPlayer/realplay.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
"
does sombody know how to go verder ???

or maybe is there some other music player wich is easy to install, I want to use it to play mp3 files.

you don't have libstdc++ which is usually part of the gcc package. I'd fathom a guess that since you're using fedora, you don't have gcc installed since this package has always been a part of the gcc development tools. Check your install cds and install the all the developer's tools. Mind you I don't know where or what you should look for though as I never install those things after the fact, but always during the initial install. I've seen that trying to install developer tools after the fact is always a pain in the ass for an rpm based distro.

To start with, as root:

Code:

/sbin/ldconfig
updatedb
locate libstdc\+\+\.so

The first command updates the 'loader cache' to make sure that the loader is looking for libraries in the correct places.

The next and third commands do a high-speed locate by filename ("updatedb" being run in this example to be sure that it's up-to-date... not necessary every time).

If the library truly does not exist, there are two possibilities: the library does not exist at all, or version ".5" of that library does not exist.
