Missing dependencies

Post by Brad_Reed »

I just tried to give XnViewMP a try on my linux laptop, but apparently I am missing a few libraries.

$ ldd /opt/XnView/XnView | grep found
libQtAV.so.1 => not found
libQtAVWidgets.so.1 => not found
libwoff2dec.so.1.0.2 => not found
libhyphen.so.0 => not found

I have qt5-5.13.2 and qt5-webkit-5.212.0_alpha3 installed. Where can I find libQtAV?

Is a download of the previous version still available?

Hi, what distribution are you using?
Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, etc.

Have you tried to launch the software using xnview.sh?
That script will also use the libs coming with the software.

I'm having the same problem.

It's installed on Ubuntu from XnViewMP-linux-x64.deb

This is what I see:
/opt/XnView/xnview.sh %F
/opt/XnView/XnView: error while loading shared libraries: libopenal.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I'm having the same problem.
Xnview worked for me well in Ubuntu 19.10 and before, in Ubuntu 20.04 I get the error message
"error while loading shared libraries: libopenal.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
The same thing when I try to reinstall it via /opt/XnView/xnview.sh.
If I try to install libopenal1-dev (as stated above) the package is not found by the system.

I have a similar problem with Linux Mint 20 (Linuxmint 20 "ulyana" (Ubuntu 20.04 "focal") kernel 5.4.0-40-generic Cinnamon 4.6.6 Gnome 3.36.2 Bash 5.0.16(1)). Mint 20 was released a few days ago. When I run xniew or xnview.sh, I see
qt5ct: using qt5ct plugin
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Following Pierre's post, I tried installing libopenal1-dev, but Mint 20 doesn't have it, it has libopenal-dev. Installing that did not resolve the problem. Now I can't use xnview, I am forced to use nomacs, qui n'est pas à la cheville de xnview.

Hi,
I've installed linuxmint 20, and like always, i got XnViewMp for images manipulations.
But actually it does not work. I've the same issue like " IcePix ":
When I run xniew or xnview.sh, I see
qt5ct: using qt5ct plugin
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
After checking "Synaptic":
qt5ct is correctly installed and his version is: 0.39-1build3
libopenal1 v1:1.19.1-1 is also installed
XnViewMp was installed using "XnViewMPv0.96.4-linux-x64.deb"

Have you some some idea to solve this issue ?

PS: Big thanks for all your work and for the time spent creating and perfecting XnView

EDIT: Found an AppImage version of XnViewMp lastest version on your forum: viewtopic.php?f=82&t=40646
