Post subject:  Trying to Install Chromium

I found that Chromium is in the Extra-testing Repo so I installed it. It isn't working the error i get when i try to launch chromium is
Code:
/usr/lib/chromium/chromium: error while loading shared libraries: libpng14.so.14: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I can't find libpng14 in the repos. I'm assuming that someone else is using chromium if it's in the extra testing repo.

Thanks
Matt Batt

libpng14.so.14 is installed as part of libpng.

So I'm wondering if chromium is looking in the wrong place?

when I do a
Code:
locate libpng14
I get nothing
when I do a
Code:
 locate libpng12
/usr/bin/libpng12-config
/usr/include/libpng12
/usr/include/libpng12/png.h
/usr/include/libpng12/pngconf.h

I get several hits.

Just installed the latest libpng 1.5.2 didn't help.

I don't think you are using core-testing as libpng is at 1.4.4 in core-testing.

No I went straight to http://sourceforge.net/projects/libpng/files/
Looking at my repositories mine are still listed as knoppmyth.net not linhes.org I'll change it but they look similar.

I tried changing it and updating but pacman refuses to see the libpng-1.4.4 I can see it in the rep in my browser. I also see a libpng12-1.2.44 that is a different file it contains a the file libpng12.so .
I'm starting to wonder what the heck chromium is looking for, because libpng 1.5 and 1.4 don't contain a file called libpng14.so.14 .

Have you tried making a symlink to the .so?

locate reads a database and won't locate a new file until the database has been updated by a cron job, you can manually update
Code:
sudo updatedb


after it finishes, you should be able to locate the new file.

That is odd. On my LH 7 boxes fully updated to the -testing repos this is what I see:
Code:
[mythtv@mythtv ~]$ sudo pacman -Qo /usr/lib/libpng14.so.14
/usr/lib/libpng14.so.14 is owned by libpng 1.4.4-1
[mythtv@mythtv ~]$ sudo pacman -Ss libpng
core-testing/libpng 1.4.4-1 [installed]
    A collection of routines used to create PNG format graphics files
core-testing/libpng12 1.2.44-1 [installed]

nope still nothing I am running 6.03 maybe there is some other conflict going on. Is anyone using chrome.

Then I got the bright idea to download the file from the rep and install it with a pacman -U. Success Chromium now doesn't complain about libpng14 anymore now it's
Code:
/usr/lib/chromium/chromium: error while loading shared libraries: libevent-2.0.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


DOH!

Yes I am using chromium but on a LH7 test system. 6.03 is your issue. The -testing repos are quite different from 6.xx and many of the pkgs are built to rely on newer pkgs than what is available in 6.xx. As you are finding quite a few pkgs will need to be updated to run chromium from the testing repos.

I'm wondering if I bite the bullet and upgrade to 7.* if I can then make it work. I saw a bunch of people having issues with the upgrade so I decided to wait. Plus I have several customizations to LinHES like firefox 4.0 vuze and hulu desktop. Now I'm starting to wonder if the "appliance" LinHES is right for me or if I should get generic Arch and put mythtv on it. I certainly love LinHES and the community has been very helpful over the years. I guess I'm hijacking my own thread.
