[SOLVED] vncviewer and libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2

[ezramorris]

hi, I'm trying to run vncviewer, but since i upgraded to hardy, i get this error:

vncviewer: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Everywhere seems to suggest running

sudo apt-get install libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2

but this gives the error:

Package libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 has no installation candidate

I think this is because a new version of libstdc++ is in hardy.

Any way to solve this?

Thanks.

adding following source to your source list:
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty universe

and reload the source list

then do

sudo apt-get install libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2

After install, I recommend you remove the source from your list.

Thanks, I just installed it straight from packages.ubuntu.com .

Dunno, on a recent fresh install of intrepid I just installed the xtightvncviewer package and it works fine.

I was trying to get realvnc to work and had the same problem, it took me about an hour to fix

you can get the package @ http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/i3...bc2.2/download

hope that helps someone
