mc (Midnight Commander) is missing files when package is installed

lkraemer · 2012-05-12 12:12:40

I've installed mc, but it gives errors and doesn't run. I don't have the exact messages to post,

but it easy to duplicate.

What is the problem with mc's install?

THANKS.

I tested Midnight Commander install on fresh boot of slitaz-4.0 and cooking live cd's.

MC starts,runs and works without any errors or problems.

mojo,

Yes, I just booted from the liveCD and tried it again, and it worked. Maybe I had some unusual

problem with reading the LiveCD the last time.

Beats me.

Thanks.

I just booted from my USB Flash Drive where, I have installed Slitaz (Cooking Version).

I installed mc from the SYSTEM TOOLS -> SLITAZ PANEL

I am getting the error shown in the attached PNG.

libpcre.so.1 : cannot open shared object file : no such file or directory.

mc doesn't run from the GUI or the Terminal (Console).

I also tried to access my gmail account and I'm getting an error about glib-networking not installed, when

accessing TSL. I've installed glib-networking (but not the -dev version) and I still can't get to gmail.

What else is likely missing?

Thanks.

Install pcre and elfutils packages.

Bellard,

THANKS, that fixed mc so it works from the GUI. I haven't tried from a Terminal yet, but it should also work.
