Hey Guys, thx for developing this software. I am currently working on some linux-packages for your tool. I have some trouble with compiling qt-virustotal-uploader. I pushed the c-vtapi in /usr/lib/c-vtapi do you have a configure file or something for changing the lib path? thx

greetings

chris

HI Chris, You could do something like 

qmake "LIBS=-L/usr/lib/c-vtapi"   && make

or you could edit the qt-vt-uploader.pro file and edit the line that starts wtih LIBS and add: -L/your/custom/path

Thanks, compiling finished. But when I try to execute VirusTotalUploader. I get the following error-Message.

Here is my: /usr/lib/c-vtapi/

libcvtapi.so  libcvtapi.so.1  libcvtapi.so.1.0.0
./VirusTotalUploader: error while loading shared libraries: libcvtapi.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Since you installed the cvtapi library outside of your system libary path you have two options:

1) Add it to your system libary path by editing /etc/ld.so.conf and adding a line with /usr/lib/c-vtapi/ then run ldconfig you can see man ldconfig or your linux distro might have more docs on it.

2) When you run the program specify the path LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/lib/c-vtapi" ./VirusTotalUploader

Thank you. My mistake. I choosed the wrong lib path. Everything is running now and fine. thx!

c-vtapi and qt-virusuploader are now in the AUR (Archlinux User Repository)

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qt-virustotal-uploader-git/ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/c-vtapi-git/

Cool. I had a look at the PKGBUILD and my only suggestion would be to not put use the --prefix parameter on the c-vtapi configure. that way the library gets installed in the default system library dir ( /usr/lib and then there won't be any need to mess around with the library path.

shibumi commented 10 years ago

oh thx I see.. I forgot to push the new PKGBUILD because the $pkgdir is wrong in the prefix too thx

this is the new PKGBUILD: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/c-/c-vtapi-git/PKGBUILD

the lib is explicitly installed in /usr/lib now
