libXm.so.3...

Alexvader · 12-08-2009, 02:13 PM

Hi Forum

I have installed multilib compatibility, and motif widgets, which I have compiled for 64bits arch, because I had to compile an app who called for them... OpenDX.

Now that I am about to install a 32 bit app that calls for libXm.so.3 ( motif widgets installed .so.4, and .so.2 )

Would it be enough to recompile for ARCH=i486... ?

In this case to which folder would the 32bit libXm.so.2 and libXm.so.4 go...? ( would they still be found by the app, or shoud i anex its path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the install shell...? )

Guess it would be enough to hack a simlink called libXm.so.3 pointing to my 32 bit libXm so.4(2)... am i right... ?

Or is libXm.so.3 a completely different kind of "animal" fom libXm.so.2(4)...?

AFAIK there is something called OpenMOTIF, and another thing called Lesstif...

This is what raises some doubts...

' libXm.so.3 ' is from 'openmotif-2.2.x'.
The binary file is available in, example,
the package openmotif22 for CentOS 5.4

A link to your current lib may work .. you will find out ...

Else : A Slackbuild for 2.2.2

P.S. : About OpenDX ... remember this ?

Hi Knudfl

I remember allright... Thks for all yr help :-)

... I got it working with the motif slackbuild for Slackware 13

...I will now build the OpenMotif from Sl 10.2 but i will build it i486... the target app is 32 bit...

Thks

I have a OpenMotif SlackBuild script plus packages for Slackware 13.0 (32-bit as well as 64-bit) here: http://slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/openmotif/

Hi AlienBob

Thks for this hint, been busy with other stuff, back to Motif Stuff now...

One question though... :

I have multilib enabled... assuming i want to build your slackbuild from source, i only have to source the 32bit environment,

Code:

root@iskandhar:/home/alex/Downloads/OMotif# . /etc/profile.d/32dev.sh

set ARCH in the slackBuild to i486, and run the SlackBuild, right...?

This is Intuitive, it is why i did so, anyway, the result is this...

Code:

What is wrong here...?

One more thing... Should I installpkg the 32 build from http://connie.slackware.com/~alien/s...otif/pkg/13.0/, must i source the environment /etc/profile.d/32dev.sh before..._

Where will the 32bit binaries lsnd in this case...? ( is the default target directory sensible to the sourcing of this environment... ? )

Please read http://alien.slackbook.org/dokuwiki/...2-bit_programs more carefully if you want to compile 32-bit software on multilib-Slackware64. You will find your error documented there.

Sourcing the "32dev.sh" script is only needed when compiling 32-bit software... not when installing 32-bit software. If you want to install a 32-bit openmofig package in Slackware64, I would suggest using "convertpkg-compat32" to create a 32-bit package that will not conflict with the 64-bit openmotif package (in case you ever want to install that as well).

I have no idea what this question is about...

Hi AlienBob

Thks for your answer...

Code:

 Where will the 32bit binaries land in this case...? ( is the default target directory sensible to the sourcing of this environment... ? )

This was a typo...

I had seen that, but the question itself does not make sense to me.

Hi AlienBob

What I have ment is :

"when I installpkg a package resulting from, say convertpkg-compat32 <foo.tgz>, the resulting shared objects are put into /usr/lib ? "

More specifically :

I have followed your advice as how to obtain a 32 bit package of OpenMotif-2.2.2 so as to have a libXm.so.3 in my system...

So... I grabbed http://slackware.osuosl.org/slackwar...2.2-i486-1.tgz, a 32bit package from Slackware 10.2, and as you advised me, I ran convertpkg-compat32 over it to obtain openmotif-compat32-2.2.2-x86_64-1.txz, I installpkg'ed it, so it went somewhere... I found the required libs in /usr/X11R6/lib...

I tried to Install an application that calls for 32bit OpenMotif 2.2.2, ProEngineer Wildfire 3...

First try : Without sourcing the 32bit env script from /etc/... I ran the installer from ProEngineer, it reported missing libXm.so.3... So, I sourced the 32bit environment... ran into the same problem.

Second try : Almost the same as the first try, only variation being that I extended the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include /usr/X11R6/lib before sourcing the 32 bit environment script... still the installer would not find the created libXm.so.3 where i told him it would be...

Seems like I am doind something n00bish os stupid... but i do not know what...

Can you give me a hint on what is my mistake...?

BRGDS

Alex

BTW: Slackware used to be simply the BEST Platform EVER to run ProEngineer... check this :
www.proesite.com/BENCH30/Wildfire_on_linux.pdf

Since it is a 32bit app, which is no longer supported for Linux

I am trying to bring it to run in Slackware64 13...

That is a very old package! It is also for a version of X that is not compatible with Slackware 13.0 which is probably the reason that the libs are not detected after installation.

Uninstall that, and then try converting this package instead (but since it overwrites parts of the "lesstif" package you have to remove the lesstif package too before installing the new openmotif): http://slackware.com/~alien/slackbui...otif/pkg/13.0/

Hi AlienBob

Thkz for your answer

I Already have this installed as x86_64 arch I do not needed it 32bit anyway... needed it to compile OpenDX ( Data eXplorer from IBM )

...the problem is that this will give me libXm.so.4 ( which I have allright ...)

... well Pro Engineer calls for libXm.so.3

Do you think that converting this package to 32 bit and installing it and then making a symlink to 32 bit libXm.so.4 called libXm.so.3 will solve the issue...? ...Won't there be unknown symbols issues and stuff...?

BRGDS

Alex

Alien Bob · 12-17-2009, 01:58 PM

You'll only find out by creating the symlink and looking at what happens...
Alternatively, you can grab the openmotif-2.2.2 source, modify my openmotif.SlackBuild (hopefully the only thing needed is changing the VERSION number) and create a 32-bit package for this version yourself.
