</div></div>Ok, so I am now attempting to install pd-extended on a fresh 64-bit<br>
9.10 Karmic Ubuntu desktop. The "Method 2" instructions on<br>
<a href="http://puredata.info/docs/developer/64BitLinux/" target="_blank">http://puredata.info/docs/developer/64BitLinux/</a> seem to work fine<br>
until I have to install libgomp.so.l<br>
<br>
It seems to install using "sudo getlibs -l libgomp.so.l" just like all<br>
the ones before it, but then when I open pd-extended I still receive<br>
the following error:<br>
<br>
/usr/lib/pd/extra/Gem/Gem.pd_linux: libgomp.so.l: cannot open shared<br>
object file: No such file or directory<br>
Gem: can't load library<br>
<br>
Gem appears to be the only library that won't load, unfortunately it<br>
is the one I care the most about.<br>
<font color="#888888"><br>
-Ben<br>
</font></blockquote><br></div>Hmm. My best bet is that the whole (i386) package needs to be installed, which is called libgomp1. The is an util called apt-file which helps you find which package contains a specific file - not sure this solves the problem, though.<br>
Also, getlibs seems to always do the "install? Y/n?" even when it doesn't install anything at the end.<br><br>Andras<br>
