I am a long time PageStream user on another platform (Amiga) and a person
who does some intermediate level perl programming. I am trying to become
comfortable with the Linux OS because I want a non-windows alternative to
AmigaOS as a backup. I currently have an Athlon machine which dual boots
into Amithlon and Linux. At the moment I am running Red Hat Linux .

If i try to launch Pagestream from a command line in the Page stream
subdir i get the following error:

PageStream4: error while loading shared
libraries: libgnomeui-2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file
or directory

If I go to the PageStream4 icon and click on it I get the error:

Couldn't find the program 'PageStream4'.

I have configured the.bashrc file as suggested in the installation notes
using as path/to/pagestream

/usr/local/PageStream4/

i have also run ldconfig -v from root.

Sounds like your version of Red Hat does not have gnome 2.0 installed. You
can download the package from
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/libgnomeui2/

So what version of Red Hat do you have? Also, if you end of needing other
packages, let me know. I'm trying to create a list of
distributions/versions and what they need to run PageStream (if they don't
already have it).

Same goes for anyone else!

Sorry, meant to say already:

SuSE 8.2 ("full" install)
KDE 3.1.1
(updated via YAST Online Update)

Network printer, only client CUPS software installed

Additional packages for PgS:
libgnomeui

There are additional packages, but that is the only one I noted as being
required for PgS (note that the GIMP is installed by default so it was GIMP
required gnome packages plus libgnomeui).

Home directories are mounted via NFS. To make this work with gnome requires
that the nfslock service be installed and running.

Forgot to mention that I start PgS with a script from the GUI (Konqueror).
This would not be necessary if I altered system paths, of course.

Tim Doty

#!/bin/bash
export PGSPATH=`dirname "$0"`
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$PGSPATH/SoftLogik/lib
export PATH=$PATH:$PGSPATH
$PGSPATH/PageStream4 $1
exit 0

Thanks!

(I presume you mean libgnomeui2)

probably. To ease re-installations I have a text file that lists the steps I
have to take to get my environment back (along with notes as to why they are
necessary) and all it says is "libgnomeui" which would be enough to pick it
out of the list in YAST.

In fact I just checked and in YAST it simply calls the package libgnomeui. If
I go to the Technical Data tab it lists the installed version as 2.2.0.1-35.
