[Scilab-Dev] Beginner in Scilab

[Guilherme Kunigami]

Hi,

Sorry if I'm being inconvenient, but I'm really stuck. I tried some other
things:

I included in my $LD_LIBRARY_PATH the directories for libjava.so,
libverify.so and libhpi.so. The error I get now is:

http://pastebin.com/f1f57518f

I'm not sure why the system is searching for the file in:

> /usr/local/lib/scilab/libscilinear_algebra.so

since it should be looked for in:

>
/home/kunigami/development/scilab/scilab/modules/linear_algebra/.libs/libscilinear_algebra.so

Should I uninstall my installed copy of scilab to use the development
version?

Thanks,
