Hi, I'm trying to install bitpim on Ubuntu 11.04 and I run into this problem:


Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/opt/cx_Freeze-3.0.3/initscripts/ConsoleSetLibPath.py", line 35, in <module>
File "src/bp.py", line 20, in <module>
File "src/bp_cli.py", line 21, in <module>

File "ExtensionLoader_wx__core_.py", line 12, in <module>
ImportError: libtiff.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

After finding a howto, I tried fixing it by making a symlink to libtiff.so.4, but the error message still shows whenever I run bitpim. Any ideas?

EDIT: I tried reinstalling libtiff4 and the dev package and redoing the symlink and it suddenly works now. *shrug*
