Canon BrightQ Driver Installation and glibc Version

Message

Hi all,

We got a shiny, new Canon ImageRunner 5070 here at work, and I want to be able to use all the nifty features, which means installing the BrightQ
drivers for the ImageRunner. When I go to install the driver, I get a message that I'm using a glibc version below version 2.1, and that installation can't continue. I'm curently running glibc version 2.3.6-r3 on an AMD64. Anyone know how to fix this?

Cheers,
Dennis

I am having the exact same problem. I had this working before on an x86 box, but recently upgraded to an AMD64 box, and can't get it to work. I have tried uncompressing, then editing the scripts, but am not having any luck with that either. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Did any of you finally get this working?

I am trying to get a canon imagerunner printer working, also on an AMD64 system. BrightQ Pro is only available for North American clients. I downloaded CQue from the South African Canon website. but when I run the setup script I get:

Code: Select all

./setup: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

This is where I am stuck.

Anyone have any solutions?

have you tried and see if the mentioned file exists? do you have libpmg installed?

Hi DaggyStyle,

Yes I do have media-libs/libpng-1.5.13-r1 installed (which provides libpng15.so.so.15.13.0). But this does not provide the needed library which is outdated and no longer in portage.

Any other ideas?

The program setup was linked to an obsolete version of libpng. Rebuild it on a modern system or install the libpng12 compatibility slot. Note that the compatibility package is only necessary until you can rebuild all programs which depend on the legacy library.

Thanks for the advice Hu,

I installed the outdated libpng into a slot and managed to resolve those dependencies.

The setup script now fails with:

Code: Select all

/bin/cp: cannot stat 'cque.pp': No such file or directory

Any idea what else I could do now?
