libpcre.so.3 dependency error on CentOS

[mileswhen]

Dear Team,

I'm running into the following error on Linux CentOS:

Konclude: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I've checked and I seem to have PCRE installed. Would appreciate to get your thoughts on this.

Thank you

Thanks for the report (and sorry for the late reply). You may want to try the docker version (Konclude-v0.7.0-1138-Linux-Docker-Compiled-x64-GCC4.8.4-Static-Qt5.12.10.zip), which has hardly any dependencies. Otherwise you can try to add the missing library to the library path with a command as follows:

$export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH,

where you may want to adapt /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lib to the directory of the PCRE lib. Other than that, I don't really know why the library cannot be located on your system. You may want to check ldd Konclude, which should retrun something as follows (to see whether/which libraries are resolved):

    linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007ffcd5fb9000)
    libz.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so.1 (0x00007f5625624000)
    libdl.so.2 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f5625420000)
    liblzma.so.5 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblzma.so.5 (0x00007f56251fe000)
    libpcre.so.3 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcre.so.3 (0x00007f5624f8d000)
    libglib-2.0.so.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglib-2.0.so.0 (0x00007f5624c7c000)
    libpthread.so.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f5624a5f000)
    libstdc++.so.6 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 (0x00007f562467b000)
    libm.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6 (0x00007f5624372000)
    libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007f562415a000)
    libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007f5623d90000)
    /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f562583e000)

Ah brilliant, thanks for the detailed answer. Using the docker version works!
