shared object: libaflib

shared object: libaflib

[Cheryl Homiak]

Tried listen-up with a bookshare book; I knew it wasn't supposed to work but wanted to see what happened.
The error I got involves libaflib.so (sorry I don't have the version number in front of me) which from my google search appears to be part of jMax; this appears to be a kernel patch, though I could be wrong about this. Are we going to have to patch jMax or will there be another workaround for this? I also saw rpm's for jMax (I think suse was mentioned in the google reference) but didn't find anything else; no debian package for instance.

Thanks.

libaflib is part of the open source audio library package so if you
got an error like not being able to find shared object then you didn't
compile and install osalp-0.7.3 correctly.

Hi Kirk.
I installed osalp-0.7.3  before I installed listen-up. I performed all the steps and got no errors. It was your usual ./configure, make, make install. Not sure what I could have done to that. A search of my system with 'find" reveals that I do indeed have the file in question. so it appears to me that I either have to change my path or the path in which listen-up looks; I installed both listen-up and osalp from /usr/local/src so maybe /usr/local/lib isn't being searched for some reason?

You can check to see what directories are being searched by looking at
your /etc/ldso.conf file.  Check to see if there is a /sr/local/lib
line in there.  If not, edit the file and place the directory at the
bottom of the file and save.  Then you will need to run ldconfig to
tell the loader to recompile the library paths.

Try adding /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf and running ldconfig.

You also need to verify where listen-up's Makefile looks for the
includes.  By default, it looks in /usr/include and in my case, it
needed to be changed to /usr/local/include.  However, I was dealing
with a problem with libxml2; pretty sure my osalp stuff went without a
hitch.  I personally think the Makefile should by default do this in
/usr/local since these are typically locally installed and probably
don't come from distro packages.  This could ultimately be worked with
an auto configure script.  I would like to see if I could make an auto
configure script for listen-up once I get a clean compile with the
current structure first.
