Backup helper prerequisities Linux

Open renestalder opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

If reporting a bug:

  1. Can you describe the problem and bug in more detail? When I try to run the backup helper as described, I run into this error:
./memex-backup-helper: error while loading shared libraries: libnw.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Suggesting, there might be something missing on my system, but the Linux manual isn't telling me much. I extracted the files to a subfolder in my home folder.

  1. How can we replicate the issue?
$ chmod +x ./memex-backup-helper
$ ./memex-backup-helper
  1. Expected behavior (i.e. solution) Either I have a manual with dependencies to preinstall before the using the backup helper or the backup helper installs them for me.

  2. Error stack (from extension crash page)

  3. Other comments OS: Pop_OS 21.04

Achieved to run the Backup Helper by installing the libatomic package which was the error present when I ran ./memex-backup-helper :

[111002:111002:0829/161405.530418:FATAL:nw_content_renderer_hooks.cc(53)] Failed to load node library (error: libatomic.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

Search for your missing package here for example https://pkgs.org/download/libatomic.so.1

But the important thing here is that the dependencies should be (optimally) installed by the script or at least by specified in the docs.

Have a nice day !
