I upgraded to v. 35 but can't launch Iron, the error is :

/usr/share/iron/iron: error while loading shared libraries: libharfbuzz.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Back to v. 34. What is the reason ?

Xubuntu 12.04 LTS
AMD HD 7750 proprietery driver
I'm also getting this error on Ubuntu 32bit. How do I roll back to version 34 though? I've uninstalled 35, but when I download the deb file from the 34 version release post and install it I still get the same libharfbuzz.so.0 error. 34 was working fine for me. Please help me get back to that version. Thanks!

I've also tried extracting the tar.gz and then running make in the extracted folder in terminal, but that gives me a message saying "No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop."

Hello! I have not yet tried the fix mentioned above (will do so directly after I post this), but I thought I'd mention that I've noticed an oddity. I use Linux Mint, currently using LinuxMint 16 (petra) and 3.11.0-12-generic. I use Xfce for my desktop UI. I have Chromium and Firefox installed. I had a previous version of Iron installed, but when I tried to update it to the latest version, I found that the launcher claimed I was trying to run the old version of Iron against the new version's settings. So I used Synaptic to do a complete removal of Iron, then I re-installed Iron using GDebi.

Iron now works fine, but aside from the flash-playing problem that other have noticed, there's another peculiarity. I have both Chromium and Iron available on my small launcher at the foot of the desktop. If I launch Chromium, all works as one would expect, and I can watch news videos on the BBC website fine. However, if I then use the Iron launcher, I actually get another instance of Chromium - and again, flash videos are playing fine.

If, however, I close all browsers and launch Iron, I get the Iron browser, and flash videos do NOT work. If I then select the Chromium browser, I get Iron again! And this is despite their being called from different places. I presume it's to do with both browsers being based on the same sourcecode.

Can someone tell me if it's a good idea or not to have both Chromium and Iron installed at the same time? Unfortunately, I'm not terribly knowledgable on the technical side of things - perhaps slightly more so than the average computer user, but only just.

Anyway, as this is my first post here, I'd like to thank the SRWare team for their excellent efforts, and I look forward to the flashplayer problem being sorted out in Iron!

As per my previous post, I tried to see whether adding the info given above about PepperFlash would work, but there's no such library in my system (I suspect maybe because I haven't had Chrome installed on my system, but have Chromium instead), so - no, that doesn't work for me. I can, however, just decide whether to start with Iron or Chromium until there is a fix in Iron :-)

This version still does not work on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 32bit. Is there any fixes for this?

Please could you or Azrael5 explain this? Step by step, exactly what do I have to do?

Thanks.
