[Bug 1772317] [NEW] Missing dependency libgtkmm for gparted

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I did a minimal install of Ubuntu 18.04.  Initially, although apt
claimed that gparted was already installed, the binary didn't seem to
exist.  I removed it and reinstalled it, but it seems to be missing
dependencies:


Running "sudo gparted":
/usr/sbin/gpartedbin: error while loading shared libraries: libgtkmm-2.4.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Running "sudo apt-get install -f":
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

I had to remove libgtkmm-2.4-1v5, which also removed gparted, and then
reinstall gparted, which seems to have correctly installed the
libgtkmm-2.4-1v5 library.  I had to do something similar with
libatkmm-1.6-1v5, libpangomm-1.4-1v5, libglibmm-2.4-1v5.

Doing this seems to fix it:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall libcairomm-1.0-1v5 libglibmm-2.4-1v5 libsigc++-2.0-0v5
