Thanks jemimah. I use Geeqie in AntiX also. Works in Puppy Linux 4.31. Now going to move the pet to Macpup Next, Then Nop (via usb) and Bruno.

Dear Jemimah,

Thanks for putting me on to this one. Since I still use 3.01 on 2 of 3 machines, I took down the source and compiled it (excluded the exif2 stuff), and it works just fine. I was simply too lazy to download the exif2 headers. If anybody needs the 3.01 binary, please let me know.

With kind regards,
vovchik

on Puppy 5.2.5
when I try to start it I have the following

# geeqie &
[1] 26537
# geeqie: error while loading shared libraries: libexiv2.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I installed manually

Thanks for the help

[mimmo]

newer version of lib in /usr/lib just add a symlink

in console mode (urxvt)
#cd /usr/lib
# ls -al libexiv2*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 2011-04-02 04:10 libexiv2.so -> libexiv2.so.6.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 2011-04-02 04:10 libexiv2.so.6 -> libexiv2.so.6.0.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1703420 2011-04-02 04:16 libexiv2.so.6.0.0
#ln -s libexiv2.so.6.0.0 libexiv2.so.2

it now fail a bit further... when I navigate thru directories

# geeqie &
[1] 14402
# geeqie: symbol lookup error: geeqie: undefined symbol: _ZN5Exiv28ExifDataC1Ev
#

I'm running p525 right now, installed the geeqie .pet, & it runs without error.

Because the symlink, for libexiv2.so.2, was already there, I wonder if, somehow,
you've corrupted your p525 install? Have you a backup pupsave file?

[mimmo]

I retried (reinstalled frugal + geeqie pet)
I still get the same problem

muggins
- I do have a backup pupsave file
- did you install geeqie or updated it

Thanks,

[muggins]

I just installed Jemimah's pet, from above. As I said, libexiv2.so already exists, within lupu_525.sfs, so I wonder whether your geeqie propblems are related to some corruption of the file system.

Try booting a pup_525 CD/DVD into RAM, install the geeqie .pet & see if it works OK.[/b]

[mimmo]

muggins:
retried with iso from nluug.nl (previous test wher with ibiblio.org iso) checked the md5checksum ok

live-CD install on another computer (sfs in RAM)
install
1) firefox
2) geequie

same thing again

libexiv2.so does exist but need libexiv2.so.2

what have you installed before trying geeqie

[WhoDo]

I'm getting the same error as mimmo, muggins. Symbol lookup error.

I'm using Lucid 5.1 and the symlinks already exist. Any other ideas? Program runs for me but crashes when I try to select any image in my directory. The directory exists outside the pupsave file, so I hope that's not the problem.[/quote]

[muggins]

mimmo,

my apologies...you were right in that it was segfaulting, due to incompatible libexiv2, with lupu pups. Find attached a version compiled on p520.

@WhoDo, it should be ok with 511 also.

[muggins]

Good to hear.

[mimmo]

Works find, many thanks !

(on my side also it's to be equivalent to fastone)

NLS stands for nationalisation (language pack) ?

[muggins]

NLS = National Language Support.
