To be more precise, an executable returns this error:




error while loading shared libraries: libftdi1.so.2: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory




I can't find that library for ubuntu, but there is one for OpenSuSE so is there some way I can run this application via ubuntu?

No. Generally, packages from other distributions are going to either fail to work or break your system. Apps may work, but libraries will not. I would like to point out that the "libftdi1" package does provide this library, but under a different name, though. All you should do is sudo ln /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libftdi.so.1 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libftdi1.so.2. Note that the "x86_64-linux-gnu" folder may have a different name, though.
