Calibre 0.9.33 refuses to start with Ubuntu 12.04LTS, missing file =>SOLVED
Hello, first i want to thank you for this fine program.
It was running smooth til todays update =0.9.33. On my standard Ubuntu 12.04 the installation quit with error missing file "libffi.so.5". On my system only "libffi.so.4" and "libffi.so.6" can be found. So calibre will not run. I don't know whether this is an adequate solution, but for now it helps to set a symbolic link to "libffi.so.5" by entering the line: Code:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libffi.so.6 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libffi.so.5 Bye Lanson Last edited by Lanson; 05-31-2013 at 04:27 AM. |
