0.72 worked well (and still works) but 0.75 does not start and leaves the message:
Code: Select all
./xnview.sh
... /XnView/XnView: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.15' not found (required by ... /XnView/XnView)
... /XnView/XnView: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.15' not found (required by ... /XnView/lib/libQt5WebKit.so.5)
What to do?

QT Librairies use glibc 3.4, are you able to install them?

Likely not.
This is very unfortunate that you changed dependencies.

Not me but QT, which distribution do you have?

I understand what you mean. Yes, I am in the dependency trap and do not like it. Distribution is old and highly modified, identical on several computers, and I want to keep it as long as possible.
Point is that (1) I use XnVew for all its 17 years on many systems (so thank you for XnView!!!!!!!!!) and (2) 0.72 works so I deeply regret the situation when software which worked yesterday stop to work today.

You can still use 0.72...
If you need to reinstall it the installer is available from
old versions

OK, then solution (I found it minutes ago, everything works now):
1) Download gcc source (current is >= 5.2 but 4.6.2 is enough) from here
https://gcc.gnu.org/mirrors.html
2) Compile it (follow instructions, install missing libs if needed) -- it takes looooooong time but files which you need are ready much sooner than compilation finishes
3) Find files "libstdc++.so.6" and "libstdc++.so.6.0.16" (if you compiled the newer version, last number might be different)
4) Copy them to XnView "lib" subdirectory
5) Run XnView, it should work now
Similar problem with the solution is explained here:

Pierre, could you please mention in the announcement that older systems might have this GLIBCXX problem? It is possible that other people have the same problem.
