Hi,
New user!
I am trying to install lyx 1.1.6fix4 on a Gnu/Linux debian system.
The current .deb package is 1.1.4fix3 and my printer didn't set up
properly with that version. So I thought a later version would be
the answer.
I downloaded lyx-1.1.6fix4-i386-2.tgz from lyx.org and using alien
converted it to a .deb package and installed it using dpkg -i
lyx-1.1.6fix-i386_2-1_all.deb.
This updated the installed lyx package from 1.1.4fix3 to 1.1.6fix4.
But when I run 'lyx' from a command line (to launch the program) I
get the following error message:
lyx: error in loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.
My guess is that there is a broken or missing link here. My system
does not have libstdc++-lib6.2-2.so.3. It does have
/usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2
/usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-2.a.3
/usr/lib/lbstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.3
Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem? Is there something else
I need to download? Do I need to make a link? Should I just try the
rpm package and convert that to a .deb?
anxious and eager to get started with lyx
