I can't find a good source for libMrm.so.3

shermanator · 08-26-2015, 01:36 PM

I am getting the error message: error while loading shared libraries: libMrm.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

I assume that means that I need the library libMrm.so.3. First I need to know if this is correct. If so, where can I get it?

As said in your other thread, you should contact the person who wrote this home grown application and ask them. Further, have you searched your machine for that file?

libMrm.so.3 is found in the libmrm4 package.

It's a long story but I can't contact the person who wrote the application. No the lib is not on my computer. I finally got an answer from a co-worker who is very knowledgeable about Linux. Thanks for the reply though. I'm pretty new to Linux so I'll probably reach out for more help.

@shermanator.

'libMrm.so.3' : # yum install openmotif22

Provides ( the example is for a 64bits RHEL 5.x ) :
/usr/lib64/libMrm.so.3
/usr/lib64/libMrm.so.3.0.2
/usr/lib64/libUil.so.3
/usr/lib64/libUil.so.3.0.2
/usr/lib64/libXm.so.3
/usr/lib64/libXm.so.3.0.2

Re #4 , @jdkaye.

The package 'libMrm4' is a Suse only / Mageia3 only package. And no libMrm.so.3 !
'libMrm4' provides ...
/usr/lib64/libMrm.so.4
/usr/lib64/libMrm.so.4.0.4

Nope, I have it (i.e. libMrm4) in the Debian repos.

Code:

~$ aptitude search libMrm4
c   libmrm4                                    - Motif - MRM (Motif Resource Manager) shared library

Re #3.

Right ... ... I looked at RPM`s only, as the OP has RHEL 5.3 .

So 'yum install openmotif22' it is.

I must be getting more senile than I already am. Where does he say what distro he's using?

It was in the other thread they created. It was closed because it was redundant and because it also was a "Please Help!" title.

Thanks, RT. I am somewhat reassured.
