2.10 alpha - gsview

[GuestToo]

gsview doesn't work, it displays a message about missing libs

[DesertPuppy]

I also tried with a variety of pdf's and got the same error everytime, all the pdf's would load and display in P2.02 so I know they are good this is what the error is everytime:

Code: Select all

GSview 4.7 2005-03-25
Play_sound:not implemented
debug=0
Failed to load libgs.so: libgs.so: cannot open shared object file:
No such file or directory
Can't load Ghostscript DLL

Don't know if that will help with debuging or not.

[GuestToo]

the missing library is libgs.so

Hmm, somehow I put that into the "devx" module, which is why I never realised it wasn't there. Okay, will fix.

I haven't got 2.10 yet, so maybe someone else can run the "list-dependents" script I posted a while ago and find all the missing libs?

[BarryK]

What I should have written in my post is all you need to do to fix it is this:

# ln -s libgs.so.8.54 /usr/lib/libgs.so

just added the link on p2.10 and gsview works just like it should now, thanks Barry.

Dougal : I just downloaded your script and am running it now, will post results when it's finished.
