Install OPUS for Ubuntu 9.10
Posted: Fri Jul 30, 2010 12:30 am
I am attempting to install opus-0.65-405-2009-11-12.i386.rpm.
I used alien 8.78:
sudo alien -v opus-0.65-405-2009-11-12.i386.rpm
The file opus_0.65-406_i386.deb was created without issue.
I used:
/usr/sbin/usermod -G opus USERNAME
to add the current user to the opus group.
I ensured the packages: libcurl3, unixodbc, and libexpat1 were installed. I only had to use Synaptic Package Manager to download and install unixodbc.
I also ensured a libtiff program was installed; libtiff4 was already installed.
And libXinerama was installed as well.
I am not an experienced user when it comes to Linux or Ubuntu.
I used the workaround:
cd /usr/lib/opus/bin
ln -s /usr/lib/libtiff4 libtiff3
The log file reads:
./opus: error while loading shared libraries: libexpat.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I am not sure what to do at this point? I have the libexpat1 v 2.0.1-4ubuntu1.1.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
