Where is this library located on your system?

how i can know?
i think the problems because the traceghraphic202 is a 32 bits but still i can run it on 64 bits !

how i can know?
Well it is your system, so you must know where your files are stored.

It seems that the library is not installed on your system. For the package description see Ubuntu – Details of package libxt6 in xenial[^].

To check if the library is installed execute

dpkg -l | grep "libxt"

To install it execute

sudo apt install libxt6

So the application is a 32-bit application?
Then you must setup your Ubuntu to run 32-bit applications.

But it is always better to build the application for the used architecture.

What application is graphictrace202? A Google search did not found anything.
Mybe you can contact the author or check if there is some kind of support forum.

Are you building it on your system or are you using a binary?

i have a project in network simulator (ns2) so i create a file .tr .for analyzing the result i want to use tracegraph202 to load this file and generate a graph. this app is 32-bits.

So you are using a pre-build 32-bit binary that uses dynamically linked libraries.
That can always make problems.

The best solution is to build the application on your system. If that is not possible you should contact the author to get a binary build for your Ubuntu version (or known to run on it).
