Hi there I can confirm this bug, and I would propose to upgrade it from "low" - because it really limits the usefulness of this package on a 64bit system.
The problems seems to be pretty simple: the architecture independent package amsn-data contains a number of libraries for tcl. These are x86 libraries, so they do not work on any other architecture. Recompiling the program on amd64 fixes the problem for me (running an amd64 system). I would think that moving the libraries (such as /usr/share/amsn/utils/farsight/tcl_farsight.so) from amsn-data to amsn should fix the issue for everybody. They may also get installed in the wrong location (/usr/share should be architecture independent as far as I understand), but that should not be a problem for most users (unless it is the reason for the wrong packaging in the first place). I am sure that amsn should generate an error message when trying to load the wrong libraries, but I have no idea how to find it. Certainly the man page is not very helpful. -- amsn 0.98 looking for farsight2, freeze https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/478611 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
