[ncl-install] libpng14.so.14: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[Mary Haley]

It looks like there is something wrong with your libpng library. The problem is not with the compilation phase, but when you try to execute "./cpex08".

Do you have your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable set to anything? You can check by typing:

   printenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH

If this is set to /usr/local/lib, then that explains why this directory is being searched.

You might try unsetting this environment variable and rerun the program to see if it works.

Or, you can try setting it to /usr/lib64.

However, I have to warn that it looks like you don't have /usr/lib64/libpng.so.  If you don't , this might cause another problem.  In that case, I would check that your PNG library was installed correctly, or else try installing it again.
