Centos 7 error after installation

Post by Gert »

Hi,
I have installed Cedelite on CenOS 7 using the rpm file "codelite-10.0-1.fc25.x86_64.rpm"
After installation - without problems - when I try to call codelite in the terminal I get this error:

codelite: error while loading shared libraries: libclang.so.3.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Please, can you help me?
Tanks!!

Hi,

As the 'fc' in the rpm's name suggests, that rpm is built on, and intended for, fedora not CentOS. It may work on CentOS and similar distros, but only by chance.

If you are lucky, it's only clang 3.8 that's missing. If that is available for CentOS 7, you could install it and try running CodeLite again. However I'm not optimistic.

It will probably be less work, and certainly more likely to succeed, for you to build CodeLite yourself; either using the source rpm or from a tarball.

Regards,

David
