Hi,

i just installed amarok 1.4 beta1 today and when I start amarok, it tells me that it can\'t find libqtextra.so.1 (no such file or directory). any idea what could be wrong?

gootz

same here....

Kubuntu Breezy

amaroK: [Loader] Starting amarokapp..
amaroK: [Loader] Don\'t run gdb, valgrind, etc. against this binary! Use amarokapp.
amarokapp: error while loading shared libraries: libqtextra.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

any ideas..? the google results for libqtextra are awsome... :silly:

semisolved


./configure --without-exscalibar
and amarok seems to work fine...

The exscalibar install target doesn\'t update the shared library cache. Run ldconfig (/sbin/ldconfig in Fedora) as root after installing exscalibar and you should be good to go.

Yes, after adding the path to the libqtextra.so.1 (here: /usr/share/qt3/lib) in /etc/ld.so.conf it really works. (using Ubuntu, you have to create this file manually)

Another solution is written down, in the excalibar\'s INSTALL file (yes, I know, rtfm :whistle: )

put this path in $LD_LIBRARY_PATH and you\'re done....

Now I have nifty, colourful bars in my playlist :side:
