Description Colin Macdonald 2011-08-17 09:54:38 UTC 
An update to meshlab is in updates-testing (meshlab-1.3.0a-1.fc15).  It fails to run saying it can't find libcommon.so.1, which on my system is in /usr/lib/meshlab.

Downgrading to the previous version works fine.

$ meshlab
meshlab: error while loading shared libraries: libcommon.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

$ locate -i libcommon.so
/usr/lib/htdig/libcommon.so
/usr/lib/meshlab/libcommon.so
/usr/lib/meshlab/libcommon.so.1
/usr/lib/meshlab/libcommon.so.1.0
/usr/lib/meshlab/libcommon.so.1.0.0
Comment 1 Susi Lehtola 2011-08-17 11:08:09 UTC 
Obviously "libcommon" is such a common file name, that the library has been placed in a separate location so that it would not clash with other libraries of the same name. As you can see, even you have two completely different versions of it.

Anyway, the meshlink binary should have an rpath to %{_libdir}/meshlab to make it find its version of libcommon.
Comment 2 Eric Smith 2011-08-17 17:14:19 UTC 
I'll add rpath to the link, but for now I've unpushed this update, which has as yet unresolved FTBFS problems on FC16 and rawhide.
Comment 3 Eric Smith 2011-11-10 08:50:27 UTC 
Fixed in meshlab-1.3.1-2 in rawhide and in F15 and F16 updates.
