Thank you Alvaro

I used your method to "solve" this same issue on Mageia.

Works so far, but:

Beware elder libpng files get replaced in /usr/lib/,

so it is a good idea to backup them first!

(See inside that /install/doinst.sh)

Is there any official workaround/solution yet?

Sorry for opening a somewath old solved thread, but yesterday I decided

to try latest version myself.

I run into the same problems as many others regarding libpng using above

solution. Must admit that I found it strange though that cadsoft did not

present solutions that work for most of the top 10 distroes without

tweaking the system. Question to cadsoft, which does have a great

product, is if future releases will be recompiled using libpng15 as is

the most commonly used version for latest distro releases. Above methode

is at best a working temporarily workaround.

However, After installation went beyond libpng14 problem, I run into

another missing lib problem. I have Linux Mint 10 Julia running, and it

seems libssl.so.1.0.0 is not available. I know its a requirement but

could not find a good way to install it.

I could uppgrade to mint 12 and hope that solves it, but I find it

rather strange that one have to reinstall a one year old computer just

to have a new version of a existing program running.

Thanks

Dependency-hell: a good reason to statically link eagle.

No Worries

The 5.91 series of betas brought the libraries and you used a special

wrapper script to have EAGLE use them. The easiest way to get those four

libraries on your system is to copy them from the installed betas into

your usr/lib folder.

E-mail me at support@cadsoftusa.com and I'll send the libraries to you.

I know there are some legal reasons as to why those libraries can't be

included with EAGLE and I figure there is a similar issue with posting

them anywhere other than there original locations. That's why I didn't

attach them.
