Error executing Simulide 0.3.10 on Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS

[Piero giagnoni]

I downloaded Simulide 0.3.10 from https://sourceforge.net/projects/simulide/files/SimulIDE_0.3.10/SimulIDE_0.3.10-SR2-Lin64.tar.gz/download
on my laptop with Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS. This is the result of execution

piero@hp-laptop-15:~/SimulIDE_0.3.10-SR2-Lin64/bin$ ./simulide
./simulide: error while loading shared libraries: libQt5SerialPort.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I downloaded that library (and plugins) from https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libQt5Multimedia5&searchon=names&suite=bionic&section=all
and I checked that all the files were in right place, but I got the same error.

Anyone could help me?

Bye,

I found the solution for Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS.
Perhaps Simulide seeks library libQt5Multimedia5 in /usr/lib. It's not there. It's in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu.
You need to copy libQt5Multimedia.so.5.9.5 and libQt5MultimediaWidgets.so.5.9.5 in /usr/lib and Simulide opens normally.

Ciao,

Hi Piero.
Thank you very much for the solution.

Anyway i just uploaded a Linux AppImage that should work in most distros.

Regards.
