ubuntu 18.10 broken for a lot of packages? This time libdouble-conversion?












0















While trying to install my usual environment on Ubuntu 18.10 I have run into many, many problems.



I am curious why packages that are supposedly working under 18 seem to have all these issues?



I managed to build emacs from source, so my problems with emacs-gtk/emacs-common/emacs26 can all be put on the back burner.



But clementine and simplescreenrecorder both install using apt install and both, when run complain about



error while loading shared libraries: libdouble-conversion.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory



Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
libdouble-conversion-dev is already the newest version (2.0.1-5).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 9 not upgraded.

From what I can see, there is a symbolic link:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Apr 10 2018 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdouble-conversion.so -> libdouble-conversion.so.1


to a nonexistent file libdouble-conversion.so.1
I would of course like to solve this problem, but I would also appreciate if anyone could explain why there are so many problems like this with 18.10?

  • What do you mean by "packages that are supposedly working under 18"? In particular, note that 18.04 and 18.10 are different.

    It's better if you're specific. Ubuntu 18 could mean (1) Ubuntu Core 18, (2) Ubuntu 18.04 LTS [2018.April release] & (3) Ubuntu 18.10 [2018.October release]. Going by name, Ubuntu Core 18 (the IoT Ubuntu) is probably the closest
