@guille this is strange this is only on one machine

[fgogow]

[Ducasse]

@estebanlm I thought that on ubuntu pharo was not looking for system lib.
This is lib stuff is not nice because these are machines that are managed by a system admin so I do not understand why this is not working. It means also that we could have all the lectures broken. Luckily there is only one.

[estebanlm]

what is the result of LGitLibrary uniqueInstance libraryName ?

[estebanlm]

@guille this is strange this is only on one machine

by the way you quoted the wrong Guille (you wanted @guillep) :P

[estebanlm]

uhm... I am a little bit sleepy, sorry. I just saw you are finding /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgit2.so.1.7.

This is because of the order of search:

	^ FFIUnix64LibraryFinder findAnyLibrary: #(
		'libgit2.so.1.9'
		'libgit2.so.1.8'
		'libgit2.so.1.7'
		'libgit2.so.1.6'
		'libgit2.so.1.5'
		'libgit2.so.1.4.4'
		'libgit2.so.1.4'
		'libgit2.so.1.3'
		'libgit2.so.1.2'
		'libgit2.so.1.1'
		'libgit2.1.0.0.so' 
		'libgit2.so.1.0.0' 
		'libgit2.so.1.0'
		'libgit2.so.0.25.1')

it will search first anyone of the libraries listed before finding 1.4 which is the one that is being included in the bundle (so, 1.7).
A quick fix is to just put 1.4 first but I don't know if that will make waves otherside...

[Douha-Ag]

This does not work. I put 1.4 and I still get a crash.

[Douha-Ag]

We get

unix64LibraryName

	^ FFIUnix64LibraryFinder findAnyLibrary:
		  #(  'libgit2.so.1.4' 'libgit2.so.1.9' 'libgit2.so.1.8' 'libgit2.so.1.7'
		     'libgit2.so.1.6' 'libgit2.so.1.5' 'libgit2.so.1.4.4'
		     'libgit2.so.1.4' 'libgit2.so.1.3' 'libgit2.so.1.2'
		     'libgit2.so.1.1' 'libgit2.1.0.0.so' 'libgit2.so.1.0.0'
		     'libgit2.so.1.0' 'libgit2.so.0.25.1' )

[Douha-Ag]

So how can we make this work?

[estebanlm]

put

	^ FFIUnix64LibraryFinder findAnyLibrary: #(
		'libgit2.so.1.4.4'
		'libgit2.so.1.4'
)

(I mean keep the 1.4.4 and remove all the rest)

Are you sure you are modifying the right method? (LGitLibrary>>unix64LibraryName)

Ok I will try

[Douha-Ag]

I could push and commit but now with

unix64LibraryName

^ FFIUnix64LibraryFinder findAnyLibrary: #(
	
	'libgit2.so.1.4.4'
	'libgit2.so.1.4'
)

I get a crash on clone
