jungledisk and ubuntu 11.10 new install

No Comments

Short story :

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnotify.so.4.0.0 /usr/lib/libnotify.so.1

Long story :
I had this error after my fresh install of ubuntu 11.10 (32-bits) when launching junglediskworkgroup :

$ junglediskworkgroup
junglediskworkgroup: error while loading shared libraries: libnotify.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I found on some posts  (2006 !) that the problem was a missing symbolic link to the actual libnotify library. The path shown in the post was not the same for me (fedora + 64-bits) :

ln -s /usr/lib64/libnotify.so.4.0.0 /usr/lib64/libnotify.so.1

So :

$ find / -name *libnotify*

gave me :

/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnotify.so.4.0.0

(and also /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnotify.so.4)

  
So I tried :
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnotify.so.4.0.0 /usr/lib/libnotify.so.1
Wich did the trick...
