Re: [Gretl-users] Gretl v1.9.11 won't start

I have an issue with the latest build version (1.9.11): it won't
start!
However, I may have made an error. I went ahead with installing it
(successfully, eventually) without removing the secure version I
already had.
Once installed, clicking on the gretl icon inside the Kickoff menu
produced nothing. I then removed the installed gretl and then again.
Still nothing. I restarted the machine and logged back in - same
result.
Sometimes it produces the message

KDEInit could not launch '/usr/local/bin/gretl'

Hi,
you could do "sudo ldconfig" and then try again. This seems to be
necessary (at least sometimes) since a while ago (at least on some
systems/distributions), although I have never really understood why...
hth,
