CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE: cannot locate symbol "png_set_seek_fn" referenced by "/system/lib/libskia.so"...

[John4650-hub]

After adding -lOpenSLES to my project's Makefile LDFLAGS , the project compiles without any error but when i try to run the executable, i get CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE: cannot locate symbol "png_set_seek_fn" referenced by "/system/lib/libskia.so"... the program uses miniaudio single file project.
This happened after linking OpenSLES.

"/system/lib/libskia.so" comes from Android system and not from termux. Does setting LD_PRELOAD=/system/lib/libpng.so environment variable work?

I got the same message when i tried to run the executable. Also i noticed the following messages in my terminal

Add LD_PRELOAD while running the compiled program. In that command, you are compiling it, not running it.

Also, does /system/lib/libpng.so exist? If not, change the path where libpng.so exists.

works now, thanks.
