[fixed] Ubuntu 14.10: librtmp.so.0 missing, v3.9.1 fails to start

[tomreyn]

If you are trying to run MegaGlest 3.9.1 on Ubuntu 14.10, please apply the fix for Ubuntu 14.04 as well as this:

Code Select Expand


cd ~/megaglest
rm -f lib/libtasn1.so* lib/librtmp.so* && \
case `uname -i` in i686) ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libtasn1.so.6 lib/libtasn1.so.3; ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/librtmp.so lib/librtmp.so.0 ;; x86_64) ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtasn1.so.6 lib/libtasn1.so.3; ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/librtmp.so lib/librtmp.so.0 ;; *) echo 'Error: unknown architecture' >&2 && exit 1;; esac


Note that I am blatantly assuming that you have MegaGlest installed in ~/megaglest here. If you have it elsewhere, please change into that directory instead in the first line.

Thanks to andy123 for notifying us of this issue.

I tried to fix this in git, but I was not able to test it on ubuntu 14.04.
Maybe someone can test this for me ?

I don't think it's an issue on 14.04, just on 14.10, so that'd where it'd need to be tested.

Just a quick report to say I tried this and it didn't work. I'm currently using an up-to-date Ubuntu 14.10.

I downloaded 3.10.0-beta1 and got the missing lib error.

The links are created and the link to libTASN is good but the link to librtmp is created as a broken link somehow. I played around a bit with the file permissions but couldn't get it working.

I see this thread is a few weeks old so maybe there is a new fix?

Edit]  Using the start_megaglest script solves the link problems so the game will start. I had to change the data path in glest-dev.ini to get the data working though as the one provided points two levels above the actual data folder.

Oh so in general this is fixed, but the problem in your case was that our beta accidentally came with a glest-dev.ini ?
