[Mplayer-users] mplayer compile error

Arpi saw fit to inform me that:

>hmm. do you really have these files?

Yes. Those files are really there. But there is no file called libstdc++.so,

debian:/usr/lib# l libstdc*
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       256240 Feb 19  2000 libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.so
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       270280 May 28 21:56 libstdc++-3-libc6.1-2-2.10.0.so
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       476858 Jan 11 21:36 libstdc++-3-libc6.2-2-2.10.0.a
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       271880 Jan 11 21:36 libstdc++-3-libc6.2-2-2.10.0.so
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           30 May 29 21:45 libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 -> libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.so
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           31 May 28 21:56 libstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.3 -> libstdc++-3-libc6.1-2-2.10.0.so
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           30 May 29 19:07 libstdc++-libc6.2-2.a.3 -> libstdc++-3-libc6.2-2-2.10.0.a
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           31 May 29 19:07 libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 -> libstdc++-3-libc6.2-2-2.10.0.so


hence I just created a link called libstdc++.so pointing to the actual library.
Now it works.

debian:/usr/lib# ln -sf /usr/lib/libstdc++-3-libc6.1-2-2.10.0.so /usr/lib/libstdc++.so


Thanks a lot.
