Linux: dynamic linking / libjpeg.so.8 fails on Debian

[Michael Aschauer]

I guess this actually refers to GP (its current release has same issue) but ./ublocks-linux64bit does not run on Debian stable (stretch) as it is linked to libjepg.so.8 - current Debian has "libjpeg.so.62.2.0"

$ ./ublocks-linux64bit 
./ublocks-linux64bit: error while loading shared libraries: libjpeg.so.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I can build and run the VM locally, but how would I go on from here?

smallvm/linux$ ./GnuBlocks 
ERROR: ld.so: object 'libgtk3-nocsd.so.0' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.
Starting Linux MicroBlocks... Connect on /dev/pts/3

The jpeg library should be statically linked, as it is on the 32-bit version. Working on it...

Fixed in 0.1.20

[Michael Aschauer]

good news. it works!

(I know it's the wrong tracker, but could you also fix the same in GP distro?)

[John Maloney]

Glad to know MicroBlocks now works on Debian. Thanks for the quick testing...

Sure! It might take a week or so to get out there 'cause I'm working on a couple of high priority tasks right now.
