2149 :: Aporia runtime error

• nmcp04 (orginal) [2016-03-23T04:54:18+01:00] view original

  Hi, I am new to the forums and just getting started with Nim programming.

  I have installed Nim, Nimble pkgm and Aporia ide using the reccomended:

  #nimble install aporia@#head
  Run

  When I ran:

  #aporia
  Run

  I recieve the following error:

  #could not load: libgtksourceview-2.0.so(|.0)
  Run

  Any suggestions would be much appreciated, thanks.

  What OS you use?

  Seem that you are running Linux or something similar.

  For Aporia you need old GTK2 with gtksourceview installed -- maybe gtksourceview is a separate package for your distribution. If you have locate tool available try something like

  $ locate libgtksourceview-2
  /usr/lib64/libgtksourceview-2.0.so
  /usr/lib64/libgtksourceview-2.0.so.0
  /usr/lib64/libgtksourceview-2.0.so.0.0.0

  But you do not really need Aporia to start with Nim programming. You can use your favorite text editor -- for many editors Nim plugins are available, see http://nim-lang.org/question.html center of that page. Aporia may be interesting for you when you are interested in GTK GUI at all -- but only as a IDE tool it is not that useful currently because there is not very much active development.

  I am using Centos7 and Stefan you were correct when I checked my lib64 folder I found libgtksourceview-3 instead of 2 so after I ran a quick install of gtksourceview2 it solved the problem and I can now run Aporia.

  yum install gtksourceview2
  Run

  Thanks for your help.
