debian – Can’t run ffmpeg on OSMC

admin

I have an OSMC system with Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye). I can’t run ffmpeg:

osmc@osmc:~$ ffmpeg
ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Apparently, there’s no problem with the installed packages:

$ sudo apt-get check
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
$ dpkg -C # no output

I tried reinstalling ffmpeg:

$ sudo apt-get reinstall ffmpeg

I also tried remove/install (reinstalls 87 packages):

$ sudo apt-get remove ffmpeg
$ sudo apt-get autoremove
$ sudo apt-get install ffmpeg

I read that one of the packages libglu1 or libgl1 would help.

  • installing libglu1 did not help.
  • apt says it would remove rbp2-device-osmc, rbp2-mediacenter-osmc and rbp2-mesa-osmc for installing libgl1 so I didn’t try.

Any ideas?
