libgobject-2.0.so: cannot open about pyvips HOT 6 CLOSED

I think I might have found it: the libgobject-2.0.so symlink is installed by the -dev package for glib.

I've changed pyvips to include a version number in the soname -- would you be able to test it? Just install git master.

Another fix would be to install the -dev packages:

$ sudo apt install libvips-dev

which sholud also work.

from pyvips.

ldd $(which vips) | grep libgob
libgobject-2.0.so.0 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgobject-2.0.so.0 (0x00007fa6a0f6f000)

installing from master branch works!

Thanks for the quickreply/fix

from pyvips.

I think that's probably describing a different issue.

I guess your libgobject is called something else. I see:

$ ldd $(which vips) | grep libgob
	libgobject-2.0.so.0 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgobject-2.0.so.0 (0x00007f0797480000)
$ ls -l /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgob*

On 17.10. What do you get?

from pyvips.

I'll push out a new pyvips.

from pyvips.

Which version was this fixed on?

I am currently trying to use pyvips==2.2.1
and when deployed to serverless functions

I am still getting:

[ERROR] OSError: cannot load library 'libgobject-2.0.so

Does it mean this needs to be fixed on the OS itself?

from pyvips.

It's been fixed in 2.2.1, you probably have some other issue. Can you make a dockerfile that reproduces your problem?
