Hello, Everyone
I am running Fedora 30 and attempting to build, install & eventually
run GIMP from GIT. It builds & installs without error. But when I
attempt to run it I get the following:
[steve@afolkey2 bin]$ ./gimp-2.99
./gimp-2.99: error while loading shared libraries: libjson-c.so.2:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Obviously the error itself makes perfect sense. Fedora 30 has
libjson-c.so.4, not libjson-c.so.2
So the question is, why does GIMP compile and install with
libjson-c.so.2 not installed, but it won't run. I would assume that if
a file that GIMP requires if it is not going to crash is not present,
that GIMP would not compile. Also, what can I do to get this to work.
I know that I do not need to compile GIMP from GIT. I just enjoy doing
it. I further understand that the issue could be with Fedora 30 or me.
Now I feel better. I just installed GIMP from the official Fedora 30
repos and it crashes with the same error:
[steve@afolkey2 ~]$ /usr/bin/gimp
/usr/bin/gimp: error while loading shared libraries: libjson-c.so.2:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I wonder if anyone else running Fedora 30 is having this issue.
