    At last I've picked and compiled the wimlib source under Debian Wheezy: but, once installed (with "make install"), wimlib-imagex can't find the required libwim* library in the default path... in fact, I've had to copy the libraries from /usr/local/lib to /lib in order to make it run fine.

    Moreover, when mounting a WIM, root privileges ARE required to me, or it can't access to /dev/fuse: this is a bit annoying, since then Gnome Nautilus can't open/dismount the WIM folder (it is necessary to execute another instance of Nautilus with root privileges to do so).

    Try:

    1. Run 'sudo ldconfig' after installing.
    2. Add yourself to the 'fuse' group, log out, and log back in.
