[gmx-users] libpng.so.2 present but not found

[Erik Lindahl]

Hi Patrick,

This looks like a normal shared library problem with Grace.

Make sure /usr/lib is present in /etc/ld.so.conf and then run /sbin/ldconfig

(This updates the list of directories searched by the system).

Alternatively, you can try adding the directory to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Cheers,

Erik
