[Ambulant-users] linux plugin not recognized

[Kees Blom]

Hi Frederico,

a further look with "readelf -d npambulant.so" showed us indeed some 
libraries
that we use could be missing on your installation.
I filed a bug report for this (with an possible solution) on our project 
site at:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2812967&group_id=91457&atid=597222

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Regards,

Kees Blom.
