Hello, how did you install toxcore? I suppose that you used toktok toxcore which is not supported by Toxygen

[saidemarlin]

I installed toxcore in this way:

You should get and install libsodium. If you have installed libsodium from repo, ommit this step, and jump directly to compiling toxcore:

git clone https://github.com/jedisct1/libsodium.git cd libsodium git checkout tags/1.0.3 ./autogen.sh ./configure && make check sudo checkinstall --install --pkgname libsodium --pkgversion 1.0.0 --nodoc sudo ldconfig cd ..

Compile toxcore Then clone this repo, generate makefile, and install toxcore system-wide:

git clone https://github.com/irungentoo/toxcore.git cd toxcore autoreconf -i ./configure make sudo make install

doc address: https://github.com/irungentoo/toxcore/blob/master/INSTALL.md

Looks like deps required for building toxcore with AV are missing. Did you install all deps as described here: https://github.com/irungentoo/toxcore/blob/master/INSTALL.md#av ?

Do you have libtoxav.so file? Try locate libtoxav.so. Also make sure it was installed into /usr/lib/ and not in /usr/local/lib

I reinstalled the toxcore, now it works. Thanks a lot.

Glad it helped!
