Cannot start aMule after Ubuntu upgrade
« on: May 08, 2010, 07:59:19 PM »

Everything worked perfectly,
until i upgraded Ubuntu.

Reading symbols from /usr/local/stow/amule-opt/bin/amule...done.
(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/local/stow/amule-opt/bin/amule
/usr/local/stow/amule-opt/bin/amule: error while loading shared libraries: libbfd-2.20.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Program exited with code 0177.

Searched for libbfd in synaptic,
but it isnt there.
Anyone knows where i can find it?

I guess you have to rebuild aMule.

You are welcome. When you upgrade your distribution, it is common that libraries get some new version which are not binary-compatible with the previous one.

This can be fixed by recompiling. Anyways, with some changes in aMule's build code we could avoid this particular problem with libbfd.
