VLC can't load .so library in Linux
Posted: 08 Apr 2013 04:37
Hello again!
I've faced some strange problem in Archlinux with lua51-socket-2.0.2-5 library package
When I run lua5.1 interpreter, it loads luasocket correctly although I tested that VLC uses lua 5.1:
But when I put the same in my plugin, VLC gives me
Then I've tried another library ("lua51-filesystem"),trying to guess if there are problems in luasocket library. It seems, they are not:
BTW, my VLC is version "2.0.5 Twoflower" (27 March 2013)
That's a mystery for me. Could you, pretty please explain and suggest workaround? Or is it a bug?
