Hi -- I was installing the latest version of CCP4 6.2.0 on my machine which uses Linux Fedora Core 5.  When downloading the CCP4 package, I used the 'generic linux (x86) option'.  The package contains an package for Coot v 0.6.2 which I tar'ed and uncompressed, but when I try to run it, I get this error

./coot-real
./coot-real: error while loading shared libraries: libgio-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
./coot: line 254: 16409 Floating point exception$COOT_PREFIX/bin/guile -s $COOT_PREFIX/share/coot/scheme/coot-crash-catcher.scm $coot_real $*

Do you know how I can overcome this problem?

Thanks for your help

I guess you need to install the library.

For me it's in the following package

glib2-devel-2.28.8-1.fc15.x86_64.

Either that, or you need a binary that has older dependencies.

It's unusual for an .so not to be a link (used by developers).  I am surprised that the binary you are using is linked to an .so.

FC5 is pretty ancient these days.

It might be worthwhile to follow the thread of similar problems on the coot
mailing list
and a generic solution on the coot-wiki, like
