hi all,

i am using ubuntu 8.10. i was trying to run a perl script which will in turn invoke a C++ program call sharc(which can be downloaded from http://sourceforge.net/projects/sharc/) however i got an error below:

/usr/bin/sharc: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.
+2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

is it that i miss out some installation of libraries?

pls help. thanks.

Don't cross-post the same thread in different forum areas. The code from the project that you specify is C++-centric.

The "sharc" sources do not appear to be currently maintained. Most of the files are dated before 2008. When configured and built, they produce a large number of warnings and finally an error. Some of the files in the distribution archive are executable and they are .cpp and .h files.


Perhaps you should get the sources to compile on your machine before trying to figure out why some binary doesn't execute. Chances are that there is a library version mismatch. Sometimes all that you have to do in such cases is create a symlink that is named to the version desired that points to the version that you have, but that is likely a poor hack. Welcome to the world of "betas."
