OpenSuSE 10.3 Installation Problem

[sutterp]

I need a development tool that allows cross platform (Linux, MAC, WindowsXP) deployment of software. KBasic might be the tool of my choice, if I only could get it to work under OpenSuSE 10.3.

I downloaded installer_kbasic_professional_linux.bin to my home directory, then executed it. The installation did not produce any errors and has created two desktop icons, KBasic and Uninstall.

When I click on KBasic, nothing happens.

I start a terminal window and execute

Code: Select all

/home/sutterp/kbasic/kbide
/home/sutterp/kbasic/kbide: error while loading shared libraries: libQtWebKit.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


I am sure that libQtWebKit.so.4 is installed because:

Code: Select all

sutterp@basilisk:~> locate libQtWebKit.so.4
/usr/lib64/libQtWebKit.so.4
/usr/lib64/libQtWebKit.so.4.5
/usr/lib64/libQtWebKit.so.4.5.0


Oh, maybe KBasic looks in the wrong place, therefore:

Code: Select all

basilisk:~ #ln -s /usr/lib64/libQtWebKit.so.4 /usr/lib/libQtWebKit.so.4


Now KBasic finds the library, but:

Code: Select all

sutterp@basilisk:~> /home/sutterp/kbasic/kbide
/home/sutterp/kbasic/kbide: error while loading shared libraries: libQtWebKit.so.4: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64


What do I try next?

Thanks

Do you run a 32bit or a 64bit Linux?

Looks like a problem related to 32bit vs. 64bit. KBasic is compiled for 32bit.

[sutterp]

It is a 64 bit SuSE V 10.3. I have tried to install the 32 bit libraries, but yast persistently alters the selection and consequently installs the 64 bit versions.
