Problems installing Trackvis and Diffusion Toolkit in Ubuntu - GarzaLab/Documentation GitHub Wiki

Because they test the software in CENTOS machines, in the newest Ubuntu versions Trackvis and Diffusion Toolkit are having two or three different errors.

First error

libmng.so.1 error

To fix this just link the new libmng.so.2 to a libmng.so.1

go to /usr/lib/x84*/

In the terminal do:

$> ln -s libmng.so.2 libmng.so.1

This should fix it.

Second error

Trackvis tries to open but is stuck by this error:

(trackvis:2838); Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_widget_style_get: assertion 'GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed

I check the error and supposedly you could fix it using Qt Settings and changing the GUI Style to "plastique" or any other, but it did not work for me.

I checked and I was able to open them in the terminal using:

$> LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 trackvis $> LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 dtk

However, I still get a QSslSocket: cannot resolve SSLv2_client_method error. Anyway, seems to work with that.

Apparently, the Bug is know and is this one:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt4-x11/+bug/805303

Those are the fixes.
