Which version of libplist is installed on your computer?

I have two of them due to other projects:
libplist-2.0-4 (version 2.6.0-2)
libplist3 (version 1.12-3.1)

I did do a symbolic link to make another project of mine work. If that is the problem, please feel free to tell me!
Anything is appreciated.

Okay, I think I know what's happening.

Sideloader searches for libplist-2.0 with those names (in that order precisely):

"libplist-2.0.so.3", "libplist.so.3", "libplist-2.0.so.4", "libplist.so.4"

It can't find libplist-2.0.so.3, but it does find libplist.so.3 which is libplist-2.0's name on some systems, but on yours it's libplist 1.12! thus it crashes since it does not have the same API as the new version. I think the easiest hack to fix that would be to add a symlink from libplist-2.0.so.4 to libplist-2.0.so.3, which are not inter-compatible but Sideloader can overcome the differences. Another cleaner way would be to do that symlink in another folder and set the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH when you run sideloader (maybe write that in a script or something).
