Hello, I'm trying to install Gretl on another laptop from sources, Ubuntu 14.04. After getting the sources, configuring the installation and using make install when trying to open Gretl from cli the following error appears: ##########TERMINAL OUTPUT################### acer@acer:~/gretl-git$ gretl /usr/local/bin/gretl_x11: error while loading shared libraries: libgretl-1.0.so.20: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory acer@acer:~/gretl-git$ sudo ldconfig acer@acer:~/gretl-git$ gretl /usr/local/bin/gretl_x11: error while loading shared libraries: libgretl-1.0.so.20: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory acer@acer:~/gretl-git$ ############################################## Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong?

Even after deleting the file the error persist. «««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««« Apparently there's a file (a regular file, not a directory) on your system with the name /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig. You should delete this (it's getting in the way of the gretl install) and try again. sudo rm -f /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig make install
