Linux conflict with wxgtk related libraries

[PranQster]

Here's the error I get when launching DR (linux native, I can use DR in wine):

[john@pranqster Desktop]$ darkradiant
darkradiant: relocation error: /usr/lib/darkradiant/libwxutil-2.0.1.so: symbol _ZThn624_N8wxChoice9SetStringEjRK8wxString, version WXU_3.0 not defined in file libwx_gtk2u_core-3.0.so.0 with link time reference
[john@pranqster Desktop]$ 

I have the following installed due to varied dependencies:

lib64wxgtku2.8_0

lib64wxgtku3.0_0

lib64wxgtkugl2.8_0

lib64wxgtkugl3.0_0

wxgtk (3.0.1)

wxgtk2.8

 

I was going to try uninstalling lib64wxgtku3.0_0, but I need it for filezilla, hugin, and a few others. I need filezilla almost daily though.

How is it that I can point DR to use the 2.8 libraries instead of 3.0 without uninstalling wxgtk 3.0?

DarkRadiant definitely needs wxWidgets 3.0+, so redirecting it to use 2.8 is pretty much not possible.

 

Are you sure there actually is a conflict? It seems there is a symbol missing, not a duplicate definition. Maybe the package on your distro is not up to par?

OK, that could be. I'll check for updates. I had it backward and was assuming that DR needed the older libraries. There was a time when Mageia libraries were too new and I was forced to install old Mandriva 2010 libraries to get DR to run.
