Re: [Gretl-users] libsvm installation issue

Dear Allin, first of all thanks for implementing the libsvm program into gretl! I just tried to test it on my xubuntu 17.04 linux machine. I used the shell script build.sh to install the libsvm libraries. It ran through without any issues. The following directories and files were set up: /usr/local/include/libsvm/svm.h /usr/local/lib/libsvm.so /usr/local/lib/libsvm.so.2 /usr/local/lib/gretl-gtk2/svm.la /usr/local/lib/gretl-gtk2/svm.so /usr/local/bin/svm-predict /usr/local/bin/svm-train /usr/local/bin/svm-scale After running the shell script, I recompiled gretl using the --with-libsvm option. However, I obtain the following error message when running your first example script "Listing 1" <output> Failed to load plugin: /usr/local/lib/gretl-gtk2/svm.so Couldn't load plugin function Error executing script: halting > series svmpred = svm(L, parms) </output> even though the smv.so file is in the directory.
