Image viewer not working? - AMD64 Ubuntu

Hi folks,

Has anyone else had a problem with image viewer not working in XBMC on AMD64 Ubuntu? Everything else seems to be working, videos, audio, etc but images do not load at all. This includes album art thumbnails and downloaded movie thumbnails.

I get this error in the debug log (/var/tmp/$user-xbmc.log):

12:20:59 T:4134762624 M: 64782336 ERROR: Unable to load /usr/share/xbmc/system/ImageLib-x86_64-linux.so, reason: libjasper-1.701.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

http://pastebin.com/m30814d44

I have confirmed that /usr/share/xbmc/system/ImageLib-x86_64-linux.so exists.

Installed from PPA and up to date as of this morning (SVN 14067) on an up to date AMD64 Ubuntu build (kernel 2.6.24-19)

Thanks in advance...

yeah same problem here

on sidux 32bit everything is fine but on 64bit there is a lot of trouble (also no xbmc-script is working)

Turns out it was using the incorrect library... Fixed with

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libjasper.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib/libjasper-1.701.so.1

This is pretty much where my skill ends, could someone that knows more about the libraries and dependencies please explain why this occured?

Thanks,

Ian

Probably because there's been a libjasper update since we last updated the 64bit ImageLib. Maybe malloc64 or I will get around to building a new one here in the next day or so.

Cheers, thanks for the update Al...
