i'm using ubuntu 17.10 and in it i'm trying to launch a software called paintstorm. but I'm getting this error:



error while loading shared libraries: libGLEW.so.1.13: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory



I found out that I had to use ln -s command to link the already installed 2.0.5 version with the one that the program requires. But I think I failed to do so. And now every time I try the command in a different way, I get a message telling me that the 1.13 file already exists.



Can anyone tell me how to do this correctly?

    The ln command has a -f or --force option to "remove existing destination files"
