Error: ImportError: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libp11-kit.so.0: undefined symbol: ffi_type_pointer, version LIBFFI_BASE_7.0

[Ann-Kathrin Glosch]

Hallo, 

after complete installation of MAJIQ and VIOLA, I am receiving this error from MAJIQ. Couldn't find any solutions for it. Do you know what is wrong ?

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Tools/miniconda3/envs/ck_py38/bin/majiq", line 5, in <module>
    from rna_majiq.run_majiq import main
  File "/Tools/miniconda3/envs/ck_py38/lib/python3.8/site-packages/rna_majiq/run_majiq.py", line 12, in <module>
    from rna_majiq.src.build import build
ImportError: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libp11-kit.so.0: undefined symbol: ffi_type_pointer, version LIBFFI_BASE_7.0

Thanks

Ann

Hi Ann,

It seems like you may be using a module system in a kind of HPC, and the shared libraries you used for libffi differ between compiling and running majiq. Could you please describe the process you used to install it?
