After I upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04 vim refuses to start, showing the following error:
vim: error while loading shared libraries: libperl.so.5.14: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Now, I reinstalled perl, I checked /usr/lib
for libperl.so.5.14
file, there are three:
libperl.so.5.14
, libperl.so.5.14.2
and libperl.so
. Yet I still get this error. Why doesn't it see perl?
vim
? Is this a 32 or 64bit system? Could you show us the output ofls -l /usr/lib/libperl.so.5.14
?libperl.so.5.14
in my case. I reinstalledvim-gtk
, then reinstalledlibperl
, no dice. Symlinkinglibperl.so.5.18
to5.14
madevim
work again eventually.libperl.so.5.18
, notlibperl.so.5.14
. Which vim package(s) do you have installed and are they from official repos or from a PPA?
