I downloaded and installed the 0.42.2 RPM (I tried both i386 and i686) and even though it installed okay with no dependency errors, the program won't run because of the following error:
[dallen@...1044... ~]$ inkscape inkscape: error while loading shared libraries: libgc.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I expect that a static build of an app to include everything needed to run that app, including necessary libraries, or is my understanding of "static" incorrect.
I have had the same problem on both Fedora Core 3 (FC3) and FC4, both of which are updated as of the date of this post.
I cannot find the library which contains the libgc.so.1 library file. Apparently it's not part of the Fedora distro.
Where can I find this library?
