I'm trying to install libglut.so.3 that is required by an application.
I have installed freeglut3, freeglut3-dev, but again same error as the title of this question.



I have searched then with a sudo apt search glut and nothing new is coming out.



Doing a sudo find / -type f | grep libglut.so.3 I can see this:



find: ‘/run/user/1000/gvfs’: Permission denied
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglut.so.3.9.0


Now, even if I have installed freeglut3 and the -dev one, still get same error.



I'm thinking now to try to link in some way the libglut.so.3.9.o that I see under /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ but don't know how to do it or if it works.



Why I still get error libglut.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ?
How can I fix this?
Where are located all shared libraries that is looking for?



Thanks so much, this is becoming a pain in the neck since weeks now, so I decided to write to all of you.



My system is a 32bit i5 4GB ram



Description: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
Release: 16.04
Codename: xenial



Kind Regards

          You need to install one package:



          sudo apt-get install freeglut3


          It will install libraries to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglut.so.3 and /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglut.so.3.9.0.



          If it does not help try to find shared object dependencies of your application with
          ldd application to find its dependencies.

          And check application arch (32- or 64-bit) with file application.



          If it is 32-bit you should install 32-bit freeglut with:



          sudo apt-get install freeglut3:i386 freeglut3-dev:i386

          Again same problem with libcv.so.4 now.
          Installed libcv, libcvaux, -dev, :i386 doesn't work.



          Can't find version 4 of libcv, only 2.4.



          How do I know where to pick the libraries from?
          just doing apt search doesn't help very much.



          A find outputs this:



          sudo find / -type f | grep libcv
          find: ‘/run/user/1000/gvfs’: Permission denied
          /var/lib/dpkg/info/libcv2.4.md5sums

          /usr/share/doc/libcv-dev/copyright
          /usr/share/lintian/overrides/libcv2.4


          Thinking about some symbolic link to /usr/share/lintian/overrides/libcv2.4?

                Thinking about some symbolic link to /usr/share/lintian/overrides/libcv2.4?

                Again same problem with libcv.so.4 now.
                Installed libcv, libcvaux, -dev, :i386 doesn't work.



                Can't find version 4 of libcv, only 2.4.



                How do I know where to pick the libraries from?
                just doing apt search doesn't help very much.
