Answer 1

Try with sudo apt-get install libraspberrypi0, like someone suggested here (link)

Answer 2

The following trick will do it:

sudo apt install libgles-dev libegl-dev
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libGLESv2.so /usr/lib/libbrcmGLESv2.so
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libEGL.so /usr/lib/libbrcmEGL.so

Tested with stock RaspiOS Bullseye and anydesk repository.

Answer 3

You need to run sudo ldconfig after adding a library symlink, otherwise the linker will not know about it. The linker will not scan the entire filesystem every time you run a command (that would be too slow), it relies on a library cache created by ldconfig.

Answer 4

DL1MX really help me to install the anydesk armhf on Raspbian 64 aarch64, my steps:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture armhf

sudo apt install libpolkit-gobject-1-0:armhf libraspberrypi0:armhf libraspberrypi-dev:armhf libraspberrypi-bin:armhf libgles-dev:armhf libegl-dev:armhf

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libGLESv2.so /usr/lib/libbrcmGLESv2.so

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libEGL.so /usr/lib/libbrcmEGL.so

Then download the installer and install

Answer 5

If you have another rPI with /opt/vc you can copy that over and also copy over /etc/ld.so.conf.d/00-vmcs.conf (or create it with the text "/opt/vc/lib")

then run 'ldconfig'

Now Anydesk worked for me.

Answer 6

You can use Chromium-Browser libs also.

ln -s /usr/lib/chromium-browser/libGLESv2.so /usr/lib/libbrcmGLESv2.so

and

ln -s /usr/lib/chromium-browser/libEGL.so /usr/lib/libEGL.so

For me, worked like a charm.
