#182719 — pavucontrol fails to start

The command pavucontrol returns an error message:

error while loading shared libraries: libgtkmm-3.0.so-1: cannot open 
object file: No such file or directory.

Where can I find this missing file?

I checked apt-get install libgtkmm-3.0-1 The response was latest version 
installed.

I tried apt-cache search libgtkmm-3.0.so.1 Nothing was found.

It is more appropriate to use apt-file search libgtkmm-3.0.so.1. That
will return that it is part of package libgtkmm-3.0-1v5. And that
package replaces and conflicts libgtkmm-3.0-1. At least on Stretch, on
my laptop.

Are you using debian stretch?  I have only these similar filenames, and
pavucontrol works fine in stretch:

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtkmm-3.0.so.1
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtkmm-3.0.so.1.1.0

From package libgtkmm-3.0-1v5 which is a "depends" of  pavucontrol.

If you're on stretch, you can apt-get update, then apt-get install
--reinstall  libgtkmm-3.0-1v5

Good luck!

Thanks. I am trying to do this on a raspberry pi with rasbian, an debian 
based jessie system for arm cpu's..
I was not aware that apt-file existed. I have installed it and used it 
to find libgtkmm-3.0.so.1 in a directory /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/
Other raspberry pi users have not reported a problem using pavucontrol 
so I'll have to figure out why I have this problem.
