Hi, I am using slackware64 14.1 and I've compiled:
mono
mono-addins
gtk-sharp
from SBo to compile and use pinta (also from SBo)
But I am getting these errors upon launch:
Code:
bash-4.2$ pinta

bash-4.2$ pinta
System.TypeInitializationException: An exception was thrown by the type initializer for Mono.Unix.Native.Stdlib ---> System.DllNotFoundException: /usr/lib/libMonoPosixHelper.so
I'v newer use this thing, but it looks that for some reason pinta look for 32 bit libraries or have wrong libdir compiled in. As workaround you may use (with proper library path)
Code:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libMonoPosixHelper.so pinta
For base error, IMHO, you should check mono building process.
bash-4.2$ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libMonoPosixHelper.so pinta

It looks that mono probably use nonstandard shared library loading. For be sure, you can strace it, an check if it really try open "/usr/lib/libMonoPosixHelper.so". If so, it must be hardcoded somewhere, and this back to mono building time.
If you REALLY need to run pinta now, you can soft link /usr/lib/libMonoPosixHelper.so to /usr/lib64/libMonoPosixHelper.so, but this is very ugly workaround.
