puzzling c++ library problem

[Jasper Taylor]

Hi, I just built zinf 2.2.5 from source and I cannot run it -- it says

zinf
libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

(<unknown>:16592): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_source_remove: assertion `tag > 0'
failed

I have seen similar error messages with downloaded binaries, because I am
using Fedora Core 4 which include gcc 4.0 and libstdc++.so.6 but I cannot
understand why I am getting this when building from source, as my compiler
should surely link against its own libraries...

There is also a dialogue box saying something like
Parsing the Theme description failed. Cause: on line 0

...but I suspect this is a consequence of the library error.

Can anyone help me out? I am a professional software developer and have been
using and supporting Linux for 8 years, but Zinf is really making me feel
like I know nothing...

OK I think I sorted that one out -- FC4 seems to include a Musicbrainz library
linked against the wrong libraries. I have removed it and rebuilt everything
from source and it now works if I start it as root, but otherwise I still get
the dialogue box I mentioned earlier.

At least that is progress. I will keep trying to fix this...

Make sure you kill your ~/.zinf and also that there
are not left over installed pieces from previous installations.

If you want a real thrill do
install gtkmm-dev, and metakit
and do configure --enable-experimental

There is a new gtk interface that is enabled by changing
MusicBrowserUI: musicbrowsermm.ui
in the ~/.zinf/preferences

It's still a little raw but getting there.
