[SOLVED] gcr-4 needs an update? (missing libgcr-4.so.4)

HHyperspace · May 19, 2023

I'm on XFCE, and the Network Manager Applet hasn't been working since an update last week.

Running "nm-applet" in a terminal gives this:

nm-applet: error while loading shared libraries: libgcr-4.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Checking the repositories indicates that Obextra has 4.0.0-1, while Extra already has it at 4.1.0-1.

At the same time, for some reason, I have 4.0.0-2 in my system.

Updating our OUR (pun intended) might rectify it?

Hi Hyperspace - Try updating again; should be good now. Best, -nfg
