I have been trying to get a program called Genome Mate Pro to work.
It is available as a zip file which contains the main program and two
folders, one for "Resources" and one for "Libs" (from genomemate.org,
the 2016r08 version).
When I tried to run it, it complained that it:
Failed to find/load Framework library
libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
After some investigation, I obtained and installed
libgtk2.0-0-dbg_2.24.10-2_amd64.deb
which appears to contain the required object file.
Genome Mate Pro still couldn't find libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0. After looking
in the deb file to see where it should be installed, I found it buried
several directories deep:
/usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.2400.10
I created a link to this in the Genome Mate Pro "Libs" folder, and
just to be sure, called it libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0
It now tells me:
Failed to find/load Framework library
libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
I can only guess that the program isn't expecting a 64-bit system. Is
there any way round this?
