libcairo.so no such file or directory
 

slackware 14.1 | 64 bits

i want to install emerald using:

sbopkg -i 'emerald'

then i got this error:

gcc /usr/lib64/libcairo.so no such file or directory

On Mint:-
producesPerhaps you just need to create an appropriate symlink?

Have you tested if that file is present? It should be a symlink and point to libcairo.so.2.11200.16 in the same directory.

Suggest : Reinstall / update cairo
ftp://ftp.slackware.org.uk/slackware..._slack14.1.txz

# upgradepkg cairo-1.12.16-x86_64-1_slack14.1.txz
( # installpkg cairo-1.12.16-x86_64-1_slack14.1.txz ).

/usr/lib64/{ libcairo.so -> libcairo.so.2.11200.16 }

solved | reinstall libcairo
 

thanks to everyone. but i need how to do the symbolic link to libcairo.
in my case i got this
# locate libcairo.so
/opt/libreoffice4.1/program/libcairo.so.2
/root/cairo/src/.libs/libcairo.so
/root/cairo/src/.libs/libcairo.so.2
/usr/local/lib/libcairo.so
/usr/local/lib/libcairo.so.2.11301.0
/usr/local/lib/libcairo.so.2
/usr/lib64/libcairo.so.2.11200.16
/usr/lib64/libcairo.so
/usr/lib64/libcairo.so.2
/usr/lib/libcairo.so.2.11200.14
/usr/lib/libcairo.so
/usr/lib/libcairo.so.2

slackpkg reinstall libcairo works fine for me, but how can i do the simbolic link?.
thanks to everyone
