Libraryproblem with veracryptinstallation

Hello,

I’m new to the forum so sorry for potential wrong tags.
My OS:
OpenSuse Leap 15.6 all Updates have been installed.
Desktop KDE Plasma.

To my Problem:
When i download the .rpm file from veracrypt and install it with “zypper in” it cannot be started afterwards, the following error appears when started within the terminal: “/usr/bin/veracrypt: error while loading shared libraries: libgthread-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory”.

Fair enough maybe I dont have this library, so I download that:
“The following 6 NEW packages are going to be installed:
glibc-32bit libglib-2_0-0-32bit libgthread-2_0-0-32bit libpcre2-8-0-32bit nss-mdns-32bit samba-client-32bit”

But that Error remains.
I have the following Library: /usr/lib/libgthread-2.0.so.0 (which points to ./libgthread-2.0.so.0.7800.6).

Can anyone help me?

Sorry if this is a stupid question.

You need to tell which version, from where you did install. Tried to recreate your issue but Veracrypt just opens fine.

veracrypt-1.26.20-1.x86_64 downloaded from VeraCrypt - Free Open source disk encryption with strong security for the Paranoid

From where did you download? The package libgthread-2_0-0 is available in the openSUSE Leap OSS/update-SLE repository. Simply sudo zypper in libgthread-2_0-0

Oh my.
I am sorry, with the download of “libgthread-2_0-0” it worked.
I downloaded the lib also with zypper, the difference was I used the name that was in the Error “libgthread-2.0.so.0” and that downloaded these Packages:

I’m not that good with Linux, how du I know that the name of the Library I need is “libgthread-2_0-0” when the Error tells me “libgthread-2.0.so.0”?

Thank You!

In yast software set to search by provides and type the lib name it will tell you which package you need.

You can use YaST Software, set the search filter to “File” and paste libgthread-2.0.so.0 in to the search field. The result will be libgthread-2_0-0 and libgthread-2_0-0-32bit
