Bug Description
It seems that FreeFem++ plugins (and library files) are installed in the wrong location:
with the file "load.edp" containing a single line:
load iovtk
Typing
Freefem++ load.edp
gives
-- FreeFem++ v4.9 ( - git no git)
Load: lg_fem lg_mesh lg_mesh3 eigenvalue
1 : load "iovtk"
Load error: iovtk
fail:
dlerror : /usr/lib/
list prefix: './' '/usr/lib/
The file iovtk.so exists in two locations:
/usr/lib/
/usr/lib/
However, FreeFem++ was looking for /usr/lib/
and in general FreeFem++ support files should be in /usr/lib/ff++/4.9
This is on jammy (22.04),
freefem++, libfreefem++ and libfreefem++-dev all from 4.9+dfsg1-2build1
