making freewheeling work under ubuntu 13.4 was--Re: disappointed that dependancies for freewheeling are broken in ubuntu 13.4 - Linux-audio-user

Hi FLO,
Thanks for your help on this!
OK, I've tried the command to create a symbolic link, and freewheeling
gave me the same error.
I've looked in the /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ directory, and that
library file doesn't seem to be there, unless maybe it's hidden.
SOOOO, I'm not sure where to go from here, except to sooperlooper,
which i will also try. :-)

Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks!
Rusty

  Thanks so much FLO,
 I'l give this a try.
 Will these changes be persistant, or must I type these commands each
 time i want to run freewheeling? 
 Well, I'll explain a little bit what it should do, and then the answer
 should be apparent: The freewheeling program is linked against a very
 specific version of a library (the .26 suffix denotes a version). That
 precise version does not exist on your system. So what we do is: We take
 the existing library (version 27) and create a symbolic link to a file
 that LOOKS like the right version. This symbolic link is just another
 name for the same file in the directory. And it persists over reboots.
 So once it works, all you have to do in the future is to run freewheeling..

 No further commands should be needed in the future..
