Problem with libSDL
« on: August 10, 2006, 10:37:09 am »
I installed tremulous on Ubuntu (desktop version), but when I give the command "tremulous" I get
Quote from: "Boggy's computer"
tremulous: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


I have the file /usr/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0
Any ideas on why it isn't working or what I can do to make Tremulous run on my system?

did you install sdl from the apt repository? i never had this problem on dapper, so it might be because of that.
anyway, here's the workaround:
Code: [Select]
export LD_PATH=$LD_PATH:/usr/lib
tremulous

edit: stahlsau, i would be very scared if you have anything in /usr/Lib, and i really hope you did mean /usr/lib

Ok let's plan it out. Asva, you are nub, go sit on rets, I will build, you two go feed like hell, you go pwn their asses, and everyone else camp in the hallway, roger?

I'm also running on Ubuntu and I had a similar problem. I solved it by creating a symbollic link to my libSDL-1.2.so.0.7.2 that i named /usr/lib/libSDL.so

Give it a try.

Is the file here ? ( yes it seems )
Is the file a link to an existing file ?
Is the file with read rights ?
