Yes, but unfortunately gigedit looks in 9 other places for it but not there!

Until the package is fixed and updated, on your machine please run the following command as root:

ln -sf /usr/lib64/linuxsampler/liblinuxsampler.so.5 /usr/lib64/liblinuxsampler.so.5

This will fix it for you.

Thanks for your report.

Please remove the symlink, if created, and test with linuxsampler-2.1.0-8.1.mga7 from core/updates_testing.
