Unpack the .deb files:
tar zxvf open-vcdiff_0.7-1_amd64.deb.tar.gz
Install the .deb files:
sudo dpkg -i libvcd.deb open-vcdiff.deb
Run the vcdiff executable:
vcdiff --help
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The expected output is:
$ vcdiff --help
vcdiff: {encode | delta | decode | patch }[ <options> ]
encode or delta: create delta file from dictionary and target file
decode or patch: reconstruct target file from dictionary and delta file
[...]
Instead, the following error appears:
$ vcdiff --help
/usr/bin/vcdiff: error: `/usr/bin/.libs/vcdiff' does not exist
This script is just a wrapper for vcdiff.
See the libtool documentation for more information.
To clean up after trying this test case, remove the installed packages:
sudo dpkg -P libvcdcom-dev libvcdcom0 libvcddec-dev libvcddec0 libvcdenc-
dev libvcdenc0 open-vcdiff0
This problem did not exist in open-vcdiff version 0.5, but is present in
versions 0.6 and 0.7.
