error while loading shared libraries: libgda-4.0.so.4: cannot open shared object file
 

Hello There

I know this has been asked before but I couldn't find any convincing answers. I am trying to create a package for Moblin using the Moblin Package creator application in Ubuntu. The RPM package gets created successfully, but when I execute that package in Moblin OS in the terminal I get the following error message:

error while loading shared libraries: libgda-4.0.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

I understand that the above libraries are missing on my system and I need to add them. My question here is do I have to add them manually after the installation of the package or can the package itself include these libraries and copy them to proper locations when the package is installed. In case the libraries can be included in the package I want to know how that can be done. Can some one point me in the right direction. I am a complete newbie on this OS. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Mahesh

I guess, you will have to create a libgda-4.0 for Moblin.
