Hi I have this problem: Could not open library 'libvips.so.42': libvips.so.42: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I'm just getting started. I found it fascinating

Have you tried installing the
vips
package on your OS?

It’s a common issue on Rails 7. Rails 6 introduced the option of using libvips as an alternative to imagemagick as backend image processor. From Rails 7, libvips is the default, so if you don’t change it you need to install the bindings.
Just updated our guides to account for libvips: https://github.com/solidusio/edgeguides/pull/68
