library file missing

edgjerp · 08-26-2006, 03:48 AM

I installed rosegarden on my system, but when I try to use it, the file libqt-mt.so.3 is not found (no such file or directory). I have a 64bit system, and installed the 64bit version of the program. is there a way I can fix this? how?

running Mandriva 2006, x86_64 on AMD64.

Is there a 64-bit version of Qt for Mandriva ready available? If it
is, you need to install that.

Cheers,

did that long tima ago, but I find qt3 in both /usr/lib and in /usr/lib64, each have their own lib and lib64 folders, (mostly they contain the same files but pointing to different libraries) so I think "something" gets confused. a libqt-mt.so file is found in all the library folders, with symlinks taking care of different names (*.so, *.so.3, *.so.3.3, etc.) still the file is "missing)

is there a place I can figure out where the program is looking for the file, and either change this, or place a symlink there?

I'm not sure how /etc/ld.so.conf works in a mix & match environment (that
is if you have both 32 & 64 bit stuff installed).

Have a look at the output of
ldd `which rosegarden`
and
file `which rosegarden`

seems that worked, I placed a link to the file in /usr/lib64
