Problem in running new version of Sofa 20.12

[Amir]

Hello
I’m trying to use a new binary version of SOFA with a soft robot plug-in, but I couldn’t run it and get this error:

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

I’ve already used the older version 19.06 binary and source code without a problem. is it possible this error because of the existence of the other versions in my ubuntu?? I have python 2.7 and NumPy in my system as required for running this version.
Thanks

Hi @amir

Strange it worked with a the previous binary version and the sources. I will ask our release manager.

Hey @amir,

I think you have to install libopengl0:

sudo apt install libopengl0

See here for a reference.

Hi @Hugo, @JN
Thanks for your answer. I tried to install the libopengl0 package as you recommended, But it couldn’t locate the package:

E: Unable to locate package libopengl0

I have python 2.7 on my Linux. should I upgrade it to python 3 for this version of the Sofa?
Many Thanks
Amir
