Description Alex Combas 2003-04-20 05:08:41 UTC
Hi,
Just emerged gimp-1.3.14 a little while ago and when I try to run it I get this:

$ gimp-1.3
gimp-1.3: error while loading shared libraries: libgimpbase-1.3.so.13: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory
$

So I put a symlink from the current libgimp to that location like this:
# ln -s /usr/lib/libgimpbase-1.3.so.14 /usr/lib/libgimpbase-1.3.so.13
#

Now gimp will run, but it gives this output:

$ gimp-1.3

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am guessing that it should not even be looking for libgimpbase-1.3.so.13 and I
have no idea why its doing this. 

Hopefully someone can help.

Thanks.
