When you're running an unstable distro with extra repositories and
getting a bunch of .so errors, it's probably just a matter of broken
runtime dependencies due to incompatible packages. I used to run into
that sort of problem all the time, which is why I switched to Ubuntu LTS
releases. Debian Testing is especially horrible for this in my
experience, although granted that experience is incredibly ancient at
this point.
Well, I prefer Debian. I have Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS on the other side of
this system. The hardware is a 2.4GHz i7, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD. Ubuntu
takes 3-5 minutes to start up, patiently displaying the Ubuntu logo and
progress bar. Debian takes less than a minute.
Debian Testing has been pretty reasonable for me. But the desktop is the
Debian setup that also has the KXStudio repositories. Maybe they're the
problem.
On the laptop (with no KXStudio), Rosegarden runs fine although it
sometimes has problems trying to print/print preview (triggers errors in
Lilypond). I think it might be related to compositions with segments
that don't END on a full measure.
On the desktop, when RG was running, it had no problems with Lilypond.
Did you compile Rosegarden from source? If not, that's probably the
quick and dirty way to get rolling. If so, and you got this result,
then there might actually be a problem we could solve here.
Haven't compiled Rosegarden from source. Worth trying. Link for
instructions?
