All I had to do was run:
sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1
I was in the folder located at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
and it worked perfectly.
I had a similar error and it didn't fix with giving LD_LIBRARY_PATH in ~/.bashrc . What solved my issue is by adding .conf file and loading it. Go to terminal an be in su.
gedit /etc/ld.so.conf.d/myapp.conf
Add your library path in this file and save.(eg: /usr/local/lib). You must run the following command to activate path:
ldconfig
Verify Your New Library Path:
ldconfig -v | less
If this shows your library files, then you are good to go.
If you are running your application on Microsoft Windows, the path to dynamic libraries (.dll) need to be defined in the PATH environment variable.
If you are running your application on UNIX, the path to your dynamic libraries (.so) need to be defined in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.
I got this error and I think its the same reason of yours

Try this. Fix permissions on files:
cd /opt/Popcorn (or wherever it is)
chmod -R 555 * (755 if not ok)
chown -R root:root *
“sudo su” to get permissions on your filesystem.
If you are running your application on Microsoft Windows, the path to dynamic libraries (.dll) need to be defined in the PATH environment variable.
If you are running your application on UNIX, the path to your dynamic libraries (.so) need to be defined in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.
You need to ensure that you specify the library path during linking when you compile your .c file:
gcc -I/usr/local/include xxx.c -o xxx -L/usr/local/lib -Wl,-R/usr/local/lib
The -Wl,-R
part tells the resulting binary to also look for the library
in /usr/local/lib
at runtime before trying to use the one in /usr/lib/
.
The linux.org reference page explains the mechanics, but doesn't explain any of the motivation behind it :-(
For that, see Sun Linker and Libraries Guide
In addition, note that "external versioning" is largely obsolete on Linux, because symbol versioning (a GNU extension) allows you to have multiple incompatible versions of the same function to be present in a single library. This extension allowed glibc to have the same external version: libc.so.6
for the last 10 years.
I had this error when running my application with Eclipse CDT on Linux x86.
To fix this:
Run as -> Run configurations -> Environment
Set the path
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/my_lib_directory_path
Another possible solution depending on your situation.
If you know that libpthread_rt.so.1 is the same as libpthread_rt.so then you can create a symlink by:
ln -s /lib/libpthread_rt.so /lib/libpthread_rt.so.1
Then ls -l /lib
should now show the symlink and what it points to.
The error occurs as the system cannot refer to the library file mentioned. Take the following steps:
locate libpthread_rt.so.1
will list the path of all the files with that name. Let's suppose a path is /home/user/loc
.cd home/USERNAME
. Replace USERNAME with the name of the current active user with which you want to run the file.vi .bash_profile
and at the end of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
parameter, just before .
, add the line /lib://home/usr/loc:.
. Save the file.Another possible solution depending on your situation.

similar problem found here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1456202 I've tried the mentioned solution and it actually works.
The solutions in the previous questions may work. But I think this is an easy way to fix it.
Try to reinstall the package libwbclient
in fedora:
dnf reinstall libwbclient
Your library is a dynamic library. You need to tell the operating system where it can locate it at runtime.
To do so, we will need to do those easy steps:
(1 ) Find where the library is placed if you don't know it.
sudo find / -name the_name_of_the_file.so
(2) Check for the existence of the dynamic library path environment variable(LD_LIBRARY_PATH
)
$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
if there is nothing to be displayed, add a default path value (or not if you wish to)
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
(3) We add the desire path, export it and try the application.
Note that the path should be the directory where the path.so.something
is.
So if path.so.something
is in /my_library/path.so.something
it should be :
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/my_library/
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
$ ./my_app

Here are a few solutions you can try:
As AbiusX pointed out: If you have just now installed the library, you may simply need to run ldconfig.
sudo ldconfig
ldconfig creates the necessary links and cache to the most recent shared libraries found in the directories specified on the command line, in the file /etc/ld.so.conf, and in the trusted directories (/lib and /usr/lib).
Usually your package manager will take care of this when you install a new library, but not always, and it won't hurt to run ldconfig even if that is not your issue.
If that doesn't work, I would also check out Paul's suggestion and look for a "-dev" version of the library. Many libraries are split into dev and non-dev packages. You can use this command to look for it:
apt-cache search <libraryname>
This can also help if you simply have the wrong version of the library installed. Some libraries are published in different versions simultaneously, for example, Python.
If you are sure that the right package is installed, and ldconfig didn't find it, it may just be in a nonstandard directory. By default, ldconfig looks in /lib
, /usr/lib
, and directories listed in /etc/ld.so.conf
and $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
. If your library is somewhere else, you can either add the directory on its own line in /etc/ld.so.conf
, append the library's path to $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
, or move the library into /usr/lib
. Then run ldconfig
.
To find out where the library is, try this:
sudo find / -iname *libraryname*.so*
(Replace libraryname
with the name of your library)
If you go the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
route, you'll want to put that into your ~/.bashrc
file so it will run every time you log in:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/path/to/library
try installing sudo lib32z1
sudo apt-get install lib32z1
