Re: iup // fails to load Linux so

I have concluded that installing iup on Linux is too painful.
Currently I can not load the iup binaries with my Mint18-64bit.
Oh dear, that is bad news. I wish I could help, but I had trouble installing openGL, which must be like 0.1% of the problem.
The problem is that it looks like each Linux kernel wants a recompiled iup installation.
I wondered if the problem was that you are using a 4.4 kernel, but I see there is a 4.4 version ( https://sourceforge.net/projects/iup/files/3.21/Linux%20Libraries/ )
Just out of interest (not that I am likely to be able to help) what exactly happens if you install those pre-built binaries?
I am left wondering if https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Standard_Base might offer any hope?
Finding dependencies and compiling with `C` is no way to provide a gui for OE.
Agreed
