[SOLVED] libusb not found error

ephan · 2012-02-19 16:09:31

When I try to run simple-scan I get:

david@davidarch:~$ simple-scan
simple-scan: error while loading shared libraries: libusb-0.1.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
david@davidarch:~$

I have libusb installed, and my system is updated. What can I do? Thanks.

Could you post the output of...

# ls -lah /usr/lib | grep libusb-0.1.so.4

It looks like you're missing libusb-compat, even though pacman says it's installed.

You can check `pacman -Ql libusb-compat` to check.

Strange, seems that you're missing some things there. Have you tried reinstalling libusb and libusb-compat?

Reinstalling libusb-compat worked Thanaks!

Great, don't forget to mark this thread as solved. (Directions can be found here.) Thanks!

Almost 5 years later here to thank Trilby!

*headdesk*

If you really want to thank me, read the code of conduct and do not necrobump, especially for an empty post. Gratitude is nice, but do not let it dillute the signal to noise ratio here.

Closed.
