sl linux :: libkdu_v42R.so: cannot open shared object file

hi -

i've been able to resolve (i believe) a number of so lib issues thus far w/ the
exception of libkdu_v42R.so

i did find the kakadu site and pulled down libkdu_v52R.so and put it in /usr/lib
but sl still can't resolve it.

i'm on ubuntu 6.0 (2.6.15)

any ideas?

much appreciated,

Renaming that to what SL is looking for should work fine. Libraries should be reverse compatible should you not find the right one a newer one should work.

Or just leave it named as is and link to it which would probably be a better idea.

# cd /usr/lib
# ln -sv libkdu_v52R.so libkdu_v42R.so

It might be best to drop such things that SL is asking for especially 32 bit libs on a 64 bit system into secondlife/lib rather than taint the system. Most of the time when adding libs to secondlife it is safest to place them in secondlife/lib, unless your system is somehow missing something. Though that should be a rare case. Be careful modifying the system for SL.

i ran SL/bin/secondlife-bin vs SL/secondlife-bin.

all is well now, except sound which more then likey has nothing to do w/ SL as i'm having trouble w/ other apps in that regard as well.

thx again,

- james
