Error about libappindicator3.so.1

Support AUR

When I open my lantern app, it shows

error while loading shared libraries: libappindicator3.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or director

How can I deal with it?

Welcome to the forum! :wave:

Your what now? :thinking:

Do you have libappindicator-gtk3 installed?

Lantern app

yay -S lantern-bin

I install it using the following command

sudo pacman -S libappindicator-gtk3

then I test is

lantern                                                                             ✔  5s  
Running installation script...

It’s been reported (was that you?) and the AUR package maintainer wasn’t much help. :man_shrugging:

It offers offical deb package, I use it to install, same problem. Could I know how to solve with this similar problems? about xx.so.xx No such file or directory.
I use Ubuntu 20.04 LTS well to use this package on Gnome, first, I thought it is the problem of KDE.

The lantern-bin AUR package uses the .deb as the source. What do you mean you used the .deb to install it?

I use the following commands

debtap -q lantern.deb
ls
sudo pacman -S

Solved

cd /usr/bin
sudo ln -s libpcap.so.1 libpcap.so.0.8
lantern
