[SOLVED] Inkscape has a shared library discrepancy again
This isn't the first time inkscape has had an issu with not finding shared libraries, but this time it looks like it simply cannot find the appropriate library on my system. My apologies, but I simply don't remember how to resolve this on my own.
When I invoke inkscape from the command line, it shows:
/usr/bin/inkscape: error while loading shared libraries: libgsl.so.27: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
But then if I invoke `locate libgsl`, I get this output:
/usr/lib/libgsl.so
/usr/lib/libgsl.so.27
/usr/lib/libgsl.so.27.0.0
/usr/lib/libgslcblas.so
So the appropriate version number is within the /usr/lib, but I suppose there isn't the appropriate link? If I then invoke `ldd /usr/bin/inkscape | grep libgsl`, I get this output:
libgsl.so.28 => /usr/lib/libgsl.so.28 (0x00007db3f4e00000)
libgsl.so.27 => not found
I recall I resolved a similar issue about a year ago with the libpoppler shared library, but cannot remember exactly what I did. Is there anyway I can resolve this issue? I don't know if an update to the inkscape package would resolve this, and would rather not wait nor revert back to the previous version if at all possible.
Thanks in advance for any and all help!
