Hello people!

Here are my finds about Linux kernels and Firebird 3.0.4:

Below are the libs you need to have on each kernel and symbolic link you should have to avoid the error "/opt/firebird/bin/gsec: error while loading shared libraries: libtommath.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" on install.

KERNEL 2
  • libicu44
  • libtommath0

KERNEL 3
  • libtommath0

KERNEL 4
  • libtommath1
  • ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtommath.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtommath.so.0

KERNEL 5
  • libtommath1
  • libncurses5
  • ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtommath.so.1.1.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtommath.so.0

Current stable (buster) does have 3.0.5 in repository.

Oldstable (stretch) does come with 3.0.1 only.

For any older distribution you will have to compile from source.

I would strongly suggest to use buster distribution and install compiled
binary from repository.
