I have installed Fatrat in Lubuntu/LXDE and it would not initiate.

--- I have it in the menu, even added the rat to the launch bar, trying to run it in grun, it would not start, just the processor seems to work 3 seconds and then nothing. - Runing fatrat -f in terminal gives:

fatrat: symbol lookup error: fatrat: undefined symbol: _ZN10libtorrent7sessionC1ERKNS_11fingerprintEii


(A description of the app here)

Is it because Fatrat is based on QT library?

How could I make it work in Lubuntu?

  • I think it refers to a problem with the libtorrent library. –  Aug 03 '12 at 23:40
  • what's libtorrent? should i uninstall it? i've seen it in synaptic . do i need it to use my default qbittorent? –  Aug 03 '12 at 23:48

    Could you post the output of apt-cache policy libtorrent-rasterbar6 fatrat? – andrewsomething Aug 03 '12 at 23:58

    Hmmm... Some how you have a newer version of libtorrent-rasterbar6 than is actually in the Ubuntu repositories. You should re-install it. – andrewsomething Aug 04 '12 at 00:11
  • reinstalled libtorrent-rasterbar6 (and fatrat, qbittorrent etc) - now it works. could you paste it as answer? –  Aug 04 '12 at 00:22
  • @andrewsomething . i would add your comment as answer. if you object to that fact, just add your parallel answer and i will delete mine –  Aug 25 '12 at 20:51

this answer is in fact andrewsomething's comment that i post here as answer:

a newer version of libtorrent-rasterbar6 is actually in the Ubuntu repositories. So, the solution is to re-install it.
