also see if all dependencies are found

Code: Select all

here is the fix for Quirky003 (for others change "libsqlite3.so.0.8.6" to whatever yours is)

Code: Select all

ln -s /usr/lib/libsqlite3.so.0.8.6 /usr/lib/libsqlite3-3.6.12.so.0
Thanks for the package. :idea:

The above fix also works for Slacko 5.3.1.

Note package does not create a menu entry.

The downloads on the first page don't seem to be working.

CoolReader

#25 Post by mikeslr »

Hi All,

I use Cool Reader on my LgGPad 7. Hadn't realized there was a Linux Version. But, hunting for one I found a reference to it working in Trusty Tahr. I downloaded the CR3_3.1.2.3-39_i386.deb from here, http://ppa.launchpad.net/vovansrnd/cool ... ain/c/cr3/ by accident, intending to grab the 64Bit version just above it. Didn't realize the mistake until after I unpacked it, copied its files into a folder I named "Cool-Reader64" and deciding to post about it looked again at the download page.

As my Tahrpup64 has the 32-bit libraries, Cool-Reader ran without a hitch. So I just changed the name of the folder to Cool-Reader32. Clicking a bin file named cr3 at /usr/bin starts the application.

It apparently can be run from the location of your choice. I'll cobble together a pet so that it will have a menu entry when I get a chance.

I wouldn't be surprised if it ran under most Puppies.

I use the Epub reader extension in Firefox that is cross platform.
