You need to install libaio.so.1. yum install libaio or apt-get install libaio1

I close this issue. If you have same issue even though you installed libaio.so.1, tell me. Then, I'll reopen this.

Hello kubo, I encountered the same problem. Don't you think it could be interesting to add this requirement to the installation instructions ?
