Debian - Build - LuaJIT problem

[dredclaw]

Wanting to use LOVE on my debian laptop and the apt-get is for version 8. Decided to build version 9 which supposedly worked. When running the love command however, I get:

Code: Select all

love: error while loading shared libraries: libluajit-5.1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Not the most experienced linux user. Any suggestions?

We need more information.

1. How did you build love?
2. Which version of Debian are you running?
3. Do you have luajit installed? If so, how did you install it?
4. How are you invoking love?

I'm running Debian 7.6 (wheezy), and have had love built against luajit working fine, so I think I can help.

That can only happen when love was linked on a different system you're running it on, or your luajit install is in a non-standard location, and you set this up during compile-time, but not at runtime. In that case, take a look at ldconfig and /etc/ld.so.conf.
