[SOLVED]avidemux2 missing dependecy?

[vvucic]

I installed AVidemux from gslapt VL 5.8 SOHO final and when I start it from console I am prompted with teh following error:

avidemux2: error while loading shared libraries: libmozjs.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

hmm, which dependency is missing?

Thanx,

Do you have Seamonkey 1.0.6 installed?

Avidemux is linked to libmozjs.so.  It comes with firefox and seamonkey.  According to the "requires" it was built against Seamonkey 1.0.6
It's located: /opt/seamonkey/lib/seamonkey-1.0.6/libmozjs.so

I just installed avidemux for the heck of it and it runs fine for me although I am using 5.8 Standard.

Helo,

That is what I guessed.  I have Seamonkey etc... here.  Hmm, should I creat symlink or so and with what?

Thanx,

Yeah, you can do that.
Enter the Seamonkey lib directory first:

Code:

cd /opt/seamonkey/lib

Then check what exists in there, with a simple  ls command.
You should see a directory called seamonkey-x.x.x (where x.x.x stands for the version number).

Now simply make a symlink that points to the old directory that avidemux was built against:

Code:

ln -s seamonkey-x.x.x seamonkey-1.0.6

Remember to replace x.x.x with the correct value that you saw with the ls command.

HTH

vvucic, there is an updated avidemux package this should fix the problems you were having:
