Hi! first of all sorry for my english. I have a project hosted in Platform.sh and We need to use KnpSnappy to convert from html to image. Everything works fine in the local environment but we have a problem to use it in platform.sh test environment. The problem is that It needs the libjpeg library. This is the error when I do “wkhtmltoimage -V” in hooks build in mi .platform.app.yaml file:

/app/.global/gems/wkhtmltoimage-binary-0.12.5/libexec/wkhtmltoimage-amd64: error while loading shared libraries: libjpeg.so.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I want to know how I can install libjpeg.so library on my host. I have tried to install some ruby gem libraries but nothing works.

Does anyone know how to do it? Thank you very much for the help

  Hi, look like the the latest release 0.12 rely on an old libjpeg.so.8 that is not installed anymore on recent distribution, cf libraries - Why is libjpeg.so.8 missing from Debian? - Unix & Linux Stack Exchange

  As a work around you can still maybe use an older release of wkhtmltoimage-binary the 0.11.0.1.1 look to work for me (talking with you on support found out the wkhtmltoimage-binary-0.12.4 works too)
