[Openexr-user] libstdc++.so.5 not found

[Patrick Ledda]

Hello,

I think I have managed to compile Openexr under Redhad 9 however I'm
having problems running the "exrdisplay" program. When I run it I get
the following error:
.../libstdc++.so.5: version `GLIBCPP_3.2.2' not found (required by
/usr/local/lib/libIlmImf.so.2)

I noticed that it works fine when I'm root.

Any ideas?
thanks

Linux has all sorts of funkiness with libc and libc++ versions that I find
it difficult to keep them clear between versions.

I'd suggest installing any of the available compat-libstdc++ RPMS and
giving it another go ... if they're already installed, check the output of
'ldd' as root and as your user, and see which library file it loads when
it works - and check that file's permissions. You may also have to rebuild
your dynamic loader's cache using the 'ldconfig' command.

hth,
Klaus

Hi Klaus,

thanks for your help.
I tried 'ldd' and yes, 'exrdisplay' is actually calling a different
version of libstdc++.so.5 when i'm root which is located in /usr/lib.

This is the output from ldd:
