This is the only one that produced a non-zero result.

include dll.e 
? open_dll("/usr/lib/libwxeu.so.14")   

jstory@jstory-desktop:~/Documents$ exu test.exw 
156851904 
jstory@jstory-desktop:~/Documents$  

That actually makes sense to me. I presume this is the version that you built and installed. The C ABI changed between 9.04 and 9.10, which is probably why the earlier versions didn't work. You may need to re-run ldconfig to get the system to recognize libwxeu.so.14 without a full path.

jstory@jstory-desktop:~/Documents$ sudo ldconfig /usr/lib 
jstory@jstory-desktop:~/Documents$

Could not open wxEuphoria library.  Press enter to abort. 

You need to do this:

sudo mv /usr/local/lib/libwxeu.so.13 /tmp 
sudo rm /usr/local/lib/libwxeu.so 
sudo rm /lib/libwxeu.so 
sudo rm /lib/libwxeu.so.13 
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libwxeu.so.14 /usr/lib/libwxeu.so 
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libwxeu.so.14 /lib/libwxeu.so 
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libwxeu.so.14 /lib/libwxeu.so.14 

Then see what happens... if it still fails, try this:

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libwxeu.so.14 /lib/libwxeu.so.13 
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libwxeu.so.14 /usr/lib/libwxeu.so.13 

Yeah! It works!

I guess these 2 lines don't matter.

ln: creating symbolic link `lib/libwxeu.so': No such file or directory 
jstory@jstory-desktop:~/Documents$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libwxeu.so.14 lib/libwxeu.so.14 
ln: creating symbolic link `lib/libwxeu.so.14': No such file or directory 
jstory@jstory-desktop:~/Documents$ 

That, so far as I know, solves my problem, at least until the next Ubuntu upgrade or wipeout. But some people who download and try to run wxEuphoria-based programs will have a problem and they probably will give up quicker. What can be done about that?
