The command pavucontrol returns an error message:

error while loading shared libraries: libgtkmm-3.0.so-1: cannot open

Where can I find this missing file?

I checked apt-get install libgtkmm-3.0-1 The response was latest version
installed.

I tried apt-cache search libgtkmm-3.0.so.1 Nothing was found.
Are you using debian stretch?  I have only these similar filenames, and
pavucontrol works fine in stretch:

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtkmm-3.0.so.1
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtkmm-3.0.so.1.1.0

 From package libgtkmm-3.0-1v5 which is a "depends" of  pavucontrol.

If you're on stretch, you can apt-get update, then apt-get install
--reinstall  libgtkmm-3.0-1v5

Good luck!
Thanks. I am trying to do this on a raspberry pi with rasbian, an debian based jessie system for arm cpu's.. I was not aware that apt-file existed. I have installed it and used it to find libgtkmm-3.0.so.1 in a directory /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/ Other raspberry pi users have not reported a problem using pavucontrol so I'll have to figure out why I have this problem.
