Unable to locate package libharfbuzz

[ProfAronnax]

Hi, i try to install PiCam, but during the installation of the dependencies, i face into the issue, that apt is not able to locate the package libharfbuzz. Has anyone a idea, how can i install it?

I using aRPi3b+ with bullsey x86

Thanks for the feedback. Please run sudo apt install libharfbuzz0b

Thanks for your Help, but, that brings me only one step ahead...

Next issue is: "./picam: error while loading shared libraries: libcamera.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" i search for the lib, but i am a bit confused, because, on this page "https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/accessories/camera.html#getting-started" they mention, that When running a Raspberry Pi OS based on Bullseye, the 5 basic libcamera-apps are already installed. But it seems, that is wrong?

Just a note, installing the other depended package "libfontconfig" returns: "Note, selecting 'libfontconfig1' instead of 'libfontconfig'" but i assume, thats not really an issue, correct? Greeting

Please see if the following commands will solve the problem.

sudo apt install libcamera0
sudo ldconfig
sudo reboot

That's fine because libfontconfig is a virtual package.

Hi Nao,

LibCamera0 is already installed: pi@BabyPi:~ $ sudo apt install libcamera0 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done libcamera0 is already the newest version (0~git20221018+7c855784-1). libcamera0 set to manually installed. 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

ldconfig returns nothing: pi@BabyPi:~ $ sudo ldconfig

after reboot, the issue is still the same pi@PiBear:~/picam $ ./picam --alsadev hw:1,0 ./picam: error while loading shared libraries: libcamera.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Do you have any other idea?

@leifnagtegaal Sorry for the inconvenience. The issue has been fixed in version 2.0.8. Please use it.

Hi Nao, sorry for bothering you again. First, i really apreciate your project here and your effort for helping me.

There is a small issue in the readme.md:

wget https://github.com/iizukanao/picam/releases/download/v2.0.8/_picam-2.0.7-_`uname -m.tar.xz i guess, it should look like that wget https://github.com/iizukanao/picam/releases/download/v2.0.8/picam-2.0.8-uname -m`.tar.xz

I was not sure, if i simply can download the new build, so i deleted the picam folder and installed it from scratch. After installing, i get the next issue...

pi@PiBear:~/picam $ ./picam --alsadev hw:1,0
./picam: error while loading shared libraries: libepoxy.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

In the repository, u as not able to find that libepoxy package

[iizukanao]

Thank you for letting me know about that. I will fix the README. Does sudo apt install libepoxy0 resolve the error?

[ProfAronnax]

I tried it with just 'libepoxy', and apt returned, that no package is found also with the regex. But with libepoxy0 i was able to install it.

Next issue while starting picam is: error: ./state is a broken symbolic link

[iizukanao]

error: ./state is a broken symbolic link

Just fix those symbolic links or remove them with rm -f rec state hooks

Hi Nao, thanks for your help. Now it is working. Thanks again for sharing this great project with us!

[iizukanao]

I'm glad to hear that!
