help libg2c.so.0

Hello to everybody,

can anybody help me with the following trouble?

I have tried to install an application freely available from a website (a program capable to visualize molecular structures before/after chemical simulations), but I cannot run it, because the following error appears:

“error while loading shared libraries: libg2c.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory”

I have to say that I tried running the executable available for download, because trying to compile the source files (also available) was unsuccessful (probably because I cannot completely understand the makefile…).

I’ve also found by googling that probably it’s a matter related to a fortran compiler, is it possible?

The general compiler I use is gcc43, version 4.3-39.1. My OS is OpenSUSE 11.0 64-bit.

Can anybody help me?

Thanks a lot.

  1. firstly, make sure you have libg2c.so.0
  2. make sure it can be found from path $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, because this is the path System search for .so files
