boost and 0.32

Post by Tinker »

I have a problem starting OpenMW launcher or CS, I get a message

Code: Select all

 error while loading shared libraries: libboost_thread.so.1.55.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
As far as I knew boost was no longer a dependency, it is an option for Ogre but for 0.31 it was not installed on my system though boost-libs was and was used by several things. Last week another programme installed boost 1.56 as a dependency, which does not explain why the error is for 1.55.

I might be that installing boost 1.56 updated boost-libs but not have done it cleanly so I am doing a system update to see if that helps.

Update - that helped and I can run CS and start the launcher, but trying to load the game I get

Code: Select all

./openmw: error while loading shared libraries: libavcodec.so.56: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I thought this was part of ffmpeg which was upgraded today.

Second update, the codec is in the version of ffmpeg in testing and not yet released, so patience a few more days,
