Description Ivo Šmerek 2021-10-28 21:02:39 UTC

I just found out that `/usr/lib64/libpcre.so.1` library is missing in my system even tho I have package libpcre installed. 32bit library `/usr/lib/libpcre.so.1` is on its place. From `e-file libpcre.so.1` I understand that 64bit version should be provided as well.

Can somebody please help me with this? Thank you in advance.

# qfile -Cv /lib64/libpcre.so.1
dev-libs/libpcre-8.45: /lib64/libpcre.so.1 -> libpcre.so.1.2.13

Comment 3 Ivo Šmerek 2021-10-29 11:57:48 UTC

Thank you, at least something to work with. The strange thing is I'm getting the following error message when trying to run protontricks:

"env: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

I have to explicitly put the library to the `LD_PRELOAD="/lib64/libpcre.so.1"` variable to avoid that error. Symlinking to the `/usr/lib64` directory doesn't work.
