Sigil not start

poroto123 · 12-13-2017, 11:10 AM

Hello.

I use Sigil very often whithout problems, but after the last actualization of the system (Chakra linux) i haven been able to start the program. I tried in terminal and says this:

~]$ sigil
/usr/lib/sigil/sigil: error while loading shared libraries: libpython3.5m.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

This seems to be a python problem that affect another programs, but i want to see if anybody can help me with this.

Thanks and sorry for my english

How did you install Sigil in the place? Through software repositories, or did you compile it yourself? What version of Sigil do you have?

My guess is that your Sigil binary is compiled to use the python 3.5 shared library, but that your Chakra Linux (Arch-based, I believe?) system python has moved on to 3.6.

If you compiled Sigil yourself, you'll need to rebuild using the newer system python shared library.

If you installed Sigil via pacman, you need to see if there's a newer version (of Sigil) available to update to that matches your systems's current python version.

Thanks. It was a bug in chakra, but it was solved at the last actualization. Now it's ok.
greetings
