[invalid] Bug Report! - Linux start_configurator error

[-Archmage-]

OS: Linux - Kubuntu 9.10 64-bit


Steps leading up to error:

1-Grabbed data package from SVN.
2-Downloaded 3.3.4-BETA1 32-bit binaries.
3-Put binaries into data.
4-Executed Start Configurator Script(GOT ERROR HERE).


Error Message:

Code: [Select]

./bin/glest_configurator: error while loading shared libraries: libwx_gtk2u_gl-2.8.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


Need to know anything else?

The configurator doesn't work on your system because  libwx_gtk2u_gl-2.8.so is not installed on your system.
There is no real need to use the configurator in linux in my opinion, just start megaglest it should work.
If you really need the configurator you have to install this lib. ( same problem exists for the editor )

update:
the package is called libwxgtk2.8-0 in ubuntu, but you'll need the 32bit libs, because you are on a 64bit system and the megaglest binaries are 32 bit

[-Archmage-]

Ok.

Could you put together a script that would install all the needed libs for everything to work?

I don't need the configurator, I'm just testing, and trying to get full functionality and easy fixes for all the problems.

If you don't want to write I script, I can.

Does the game itself work for you in 64bit?
If yes, i would be really happy what someone with 64bit ubuntu has to do to play it!

For the lib see my update above.

[-Archmage-]

Yes, the game works for me.

I think you should add a little script into the Linux binary package for 64-bit users, that will install the 32-bit version of that lib.

You'd need to upload a 32-bit version of the lib and then tell the script to download that, because the 64-bit repository that I have, doesn't have a 32-bit version of that lib.

[titi]

its not just a lib, I think these are several libs

But we can make a linux64 package including real binaries for 64bit!
so glest in multiplayer compatible 32bit and the other binaries in real64.
I will think about it.

Oh....
