I've tried to run Mendeley on ubuntu 14.04. I installed it using the instructions on their website or by typing in the terminal sudo apt-get install mendeleydesktop and neither is working. Output of running mendeleydesktop on the terminal: "error while loading shared libraries: libsmime3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" Any suggestions?

It appears like you are missing a library. If you search for libsmime3.so you will hit this page telling you that file is part of the libnss3 library. So try:

sudo apt-get install libnss3

and then retry the mendeleydesktop installation.

  • But Ubuntu is not Debian. Use packages.ubuntu.com instead.
