[xcrysden] XCrySDen on Fedora 30

[John Kissane]

Thanks very much for the pointer Matic. I downloaded the 64 bit version of that file, created a softlink in its lib folder :

libTogl.so.2 -> libTogl2.0.so

And then added a line to the script that starts XCrySDen:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/XCrySDen/Togl2.0-8.4-Linux/lib/Togl2.0

Thanks & regards,
John

Hi John,


what you are missing is libtogl2 (at least that is the package name in

debian):


<https://packages.debian.org/buster/libtogl2>

https://packages.debian.org/buster/libtogl2


I tried the old trick of linking the newer version that comes with

Fedora 30 but that then produces a different error:


#ln -s /usr/lib64/tcl8.6/Togl2.1/libTogl2.1.so libTogl.so.


It seems very strange to that the version of Togl in Fedora is 2.1,

whereas the latest listed on the Togl download page is 2.0:


<http://togl.sourceforge.net/download.html#getting>

http://togl.sourceforge.net/download.html#getting



I would suggest you try to compile this package and add the path to the

$LD_LIBRARY_PATH or find a Fedora equivalent package for Togl2.0.


I hope this helps,


Best,


Matic
