missing library that is actually there?

[pjo123]

Hi all.

I'm running Suse 9.2pro 64bit.

I'm trying to get a flightsim game called targetware running. Not sure whether the problems with them or my setup. They don't supply the source for me to compile myself.

If I try to run this software I get told :

`error while loading shared libraries: libgmp.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory`

`ldd targetware` also shows:

libgmp.so.3 => not found

I have the gmp software installed.

If I look in `/usr/lib64` the file is there.

If I look in `/etc/ld.so.conf` `/usr/lib64` is in there.

I've tried running `ldconfig`.

I've tried putting a link from /usr/lib/libgmp.so.3 to /usr/lib64/libgmp.so.3.

I'm still stuck with the same problem.
Any suggestions please?

What is the command to show the library search path (as in `env` or `echo $PATH`) please?

thanks

Phil

I think it's because the software isn't compiled for 64bit.

I've had a similar problem trying to run X-plane.

Have given up on 64bit for a while and gone back to 32bit.

Both pieces of software are now working fine.

best

Phil
