After installing avast4workstation-1.3.0-1.i586.rpm I tried running it as follows:
$ cd /usr/lib/avast4workstation/bin
$ ./avastgui
I get the following error message:
./avastgui: error while loading shared libraries: libavastengine-4.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
So then I did the following:
$ cd /usr/lib/avast4workstation/lib
$ ls -l
I get the following output:
total 1752
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 25 2009-08-26 02:48 libavastengine-4.so.7 → libavastengine-4.so.7.0.5
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 1792344 2009-01-05 08:54 libavastengine-4.so.7.0.5
So obviously libavastengine-4.so.7 exists.
And another thing, if I do the following:
$ cd /usr/lib/avast4workstation/bin
$ ls
I get the following output:
avast testlibs-avastengine testlibs-gtk wrapper-script.sh
avastgui testlibs-esmtp testlibs-x11
These are all binary files except for wrapper-script.sh which is a script. What is wrapper-script.sh for? Do I have to run it first?
Does anybody have any idea as to what the fix is here?
Thanks.
Hallo,
youare runnuing the binary from its internal subdirectory - effectively bypassing the initial shell-wrapper (which takes care about libraries/paths). /usr/bin/avastgui is the file that you should start.
