xmms not starting - lib not found
« on: January 10, 2010, 05:29:46 PM »
xmms-1.2.11.tcz is not starting for me.  Seems it cannot find libxmms.so.1

Code: [Select]
#  ldd /usr/local/bin/xmms-bin
<snip>
libxmms.so.1 => not found
</snip>

Fixed by doing:
Code: [Select]
# ln -s /usr/local/lib/libxmms.so /usr/lib/libxmms.so.1

libxmms.so.1 is in the extension and my install works fine.  Are you using copy to filesystem mode, or are there any other things that may cause that symlink to either be deleted or not installed?
