libaudiofile.so.0

Hello,

I'm using slackware 8.1 just installed kde 3.1. I have following problem - in console mode sound works fine, but when i start kde it writes:
Knotify: error while loading shared libraries: libaudiofile.so.0: cannot open shared object file
: No such file or directory
Could not dlopen library knotify.la: libaudiofile.so.0: cannot open shared object file
: No such file or directory


Can You help me with that.
KDE starts but without sound.

Best Regards
Naamath

I suppose you are using the contributed Slackware packages from KDE website? I had similar problems with them. There seems to be some symbolic links missing, so to correct things you have to type (as root):
[code:1]cd /usr/lib
ln -s libaudiofile.so.0.0.2 libaudiofile.so.0
ln -s libvorbisfile.so.3.0.0 libvorbisfile.so.0
ln -s libvorbisenc.so.2.0.0 libvorbisenc.so.0
ldconfig[/code:1]
That's what I had to do, your installation may throw up some other similar errors, so adjust accordingly.
I think there is something strange in those Slackware packages :?

I built theses packages. Nobody reports theses problem to me. But I've made theses packages on a fresh slackware install.

The problem comes from the audiofile and oggvorbis packages. Not kde tho ...
