Can't open shared library: ../lib/libformat.sl (HP-UX)

Hi to all!
I have installed XnView 1.68 as in the Readme.txt under the directory /opt/xnview/ as all other programs in my HP-UX 11.11 system. It works fine when I run it from the directory /opt/xnview/bin.
However I would run it from e.g. my home dir the following error occurs:
Code: Select all
$ xnview
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Can't open shared library: ../lib/libformat.sl
/usr/lib/dld.sl: No such file or directory
ABORT instruction (core dumped)
Both PATH and SHLIB_PATH is set correctly and I have checked the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH is also contains /opt/xnview/lib. But it seems to search for libformat only through the relative address. ../lib.
Is there any possibility to run this cool program conveniently from anywhere in the directory tree?
Thanks in advance.

You have a good link libformat.sl?

Yes, I have checked it.
It works fine running from its own directory, so this link works. The problem could be with the relative path ../lib/libformat. But I do not understand, why only the xnview could not find the lib through the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, this works well with the other programs (e.g. GSL, QT), and the dld.sl theoretically checks these paths.

I have tried to copy the directory lib to the parent directory of the current directory and of course xnview runs well, because it can find its ../lib directory.

Strange, if you have the path in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH????

Here is the proof:
Code: Select all
~$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/lib:/etc/opt/resmon/lib:/opt/graphics/phigs/lib:/opt/gsl/lib:/opt/qt/lib:/opt/xnview/lib
~$ xnview
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Can't open shared library: ../lib/libformat.sl
/usr/lib/dld.sl: No such file or directory
ABORT instruction (core dumped)

And of course the path is existing:
Code: Select all
~$ ll /opt/xnview/lib/
total 3858
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root sys 33 Dec 3 22:56 libformat.sl -> /opt/xnview/lib/libformat.sl.4.16
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root sys 1961984 Dec 3 22:56 libformat.sl.4.16

Where did you find this version ? I only find the old 1.50

I can run it only when installed in the /usr/local tree.
Hope this can help.
OK for me.

1/ I found the 1.68 version on the site.
The page display 1.50 but archive contains the 1.68. I think we could wait until the release of version 1.74 to have the page corrected ;->>
2/ it's run fine for me using the install script (in the archive)
It's installed (like the old 1.50) under the /usr/local.
Cordialy.
