Dynamic linker configuration

[Shorlaks]

Hi, I followed the instructions and installed Aravis.
I’m trying to launch the arv-viewer from terminal but I get this error:

bash: arv-viewer: command not found

Also, I’m trying to run a python script from the /tests/python folder and get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File “arv-camera-test.py”, line 14, in
gi.require_version (‘Aravis’, ‘0.8’)
File “/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/init.py”, line 129, in require_version
raise ValueError(‘Namespace %s not available’ % namespace)
ValueError: Namespace Aravis not available

I guess it happens because the OS doesn’t know where aravis is installed.
I’m not sure how to configure the dynamic linker, could you please guide me through it?

You don’t seem to have aravis installed (as arv-viewer is not found at all), or you installed in some non-standard location (which you would know about?). If you post the build commands you used (or which instructions you followed, with what changes) and the output of the compilation/installation, it would be helpful to find the cause.
