Slackware 13 installation issues: no such file or directory
Posted: Thu Jul 22, 2010 1:41 am
ok... so this should be stupid easy, but for some reason it's not going to plan.
i've got the package untarred and unzipped into the /opt/qcad directory... when i try to invoke the program from said directory by typing "qcad" i get a "No such file or directory" error message. a simple "ls" will show the file like it should be there. indeed, "file" shows it as a dynamically linked 32-bit ELF executable.
however, even typing the full path to the program produces the same no file error. if i try to invoke it in the background with an ampersand (&) i get an exit 127 upon typing "jobs". i'm not sure if that's qcad's exit status or something from jobs (no man page or info about jobs on my system).
ideally i'd like to use the (KDE) menu editor and just add an iconic link to the program... regardless, anybody have any ideas why even the full path isn't working here? i'm just not getting it...
thanks
