0003096: Crash on launch due to missing library libvcmi when installed from PPA
After istalling vcmi from the PPA and trying to start the launcher or client I get the following error:

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

This does not appear when the package is installed from the normal Ubuntu repositories, though that is a vastly different version.
$ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:vcmi/ppa
 Packages of VCMI (Heroes3 recreated) game for Ubuntu Linux OS
 More info: https://launchpad.net/~vcmi/+archive/ubuntu/ppa [^]
Press [ENTER] to continue or Ctrl-c to cancel adding it.

$ sudo apt update
...

$ sudo apt-get install vcmi
...


$ vcmibuilder --data ~/.wine/drive_c/GOG\ Games/Heroes\ of\ Might\ and\ Magic\ 3\ Complete/

And finally trying to start the launcher or client I get the following error:

$ vcmilauncher
vcmilauncher: error while loading shared libraries: libvcmi.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


$ vcmiclient
vcmiclient: error while loading shared libraries: libvcmi.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
No tags attached.

Fixed in 1.1, both daily & stable PPA's should correctly find libvcmi.so
