Hello, I just installed pidgin 2.4.1 on my linux(gnome). And I tried to launch pidgin and I get the following error
pidgin: error while loading shared libraries: libpurple.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I checked for this file and it exists in these locations. /root/Desktop/pidgin-2.4.1/libpurple/.libs/libpurple.so.0 /usr/local/lib/libpurple.so.0 /usr/lib/libpurple.so.0 ibpurple.so.0 is a sym link to libpurple.so.0.4.1 : -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 2313354 Apr 24 21:01 libpurple.so.0.4.1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Apr 24 21:01 libpurple.so.0 -> libpurple.so.0.4.1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Apr 24 21:01 libpurple.so -> libpurple.so.0.4.1 And I googled for solution and I found that many others had similar problem and the solution was : 1. install gnutls and gnutls dlevel I checked my installation and gnutls and gnutls dlevel are installed. And I used the following command to start installation of pidgin *./configure --prefix=/usr --with-gnutls-includes=/usr/include/gnutls/ --with-gnutls-libs=/usr/lib/* ** I feel I have everything installed and made no mistakes. But still pidgin refuses to launch!! Can anyone tell whats wrong? Thanks, Praveen
