Re: [ferret_users] Installation problem
Saji,
| I am using ubuntu 8.04. I had a problem when executing the 'ferret'
| command. It says
|
| "ferret: error while loading shared libraries: libtermcap.so.2:
| cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
|
| as the error. What to do?
Here's a general recipe of solving this kind of compatibility
problems.
Search Google for libtermcap . You'll find an RPM package containing
libtermcap version 2, such as
libtermcap-2.0.8-41.i386.rpm
Download it. Then convert it to a .deb package, like so:
$ su -
# cd /var/tmp
# alien /some/path/to/libtermcap-2.0.8-41.i386.rpm
Then, you'll obtain a .deb package like
libtermcap_2.0.8-42_i386.deb
Finally, install it as
# dpkg -i libtermcap_2.0.8-42_i386.deb
If you don't have the alien command, install it using apt-get,
aptitude, or an equivalent commend.
Hope this helps,
Ryo
