For some reason swig on my computer is not configured correctly.
It gives this output on checking version:



$ swig --version

swig: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.1: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory


whereas on reinstalling it the following output is generated:



piyush@piyush-HP:~/test$ sudo apt-get install swig
[sudo] password for piyush:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
swig is already the newest version (3.0.8-0ubuntu3).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.


any suggestions for how to fix it?
thanks.

  • Try sudo apt-get -f install and see if that helps, look slike there might be an issue with a dependency.
