This problem appears to show up in the 64 bit version. I'll try again later, if it continues to give me a hard time, I'll try the deb.
search for the file you need like:
Code:
sudo find / -name name-of-file
then to make a symlink make it from the file to where it goes
it might be possible that you don't have the library package (or other dependency) installed that the file is a part of (you probably thought of that already I guess)

Be aware of what you enter into the terminal. Ask for clarification if you are unsure what a command does.
