libslang-utf8.so.1

[millan]

Where i can get that library? I have a relatively new libslang and i mean it is complete...
Just when i try to run "runClient.sh" it writes just
</font><blockquote>code:</font><hr /><pre style="font-size:x-small; font-family: monospace;"> ./SpaceVikings: error while loading shared libraries: libslang-utf8.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory </pre>[/QUOTE]

Debian has it in /lib under a slightly different name:
lib/libslang.so.1-UTF8

Try to copy that in DTs lib directory and rename.

[millan]

hmm i just searched where that damn libslang is.
I found hi im the /usr/libs/ but there is only:
libslang.so
libslang.so.0
libslang.so.0.99.38
libslang.so.1
and libslang.so.1.3.5

I tryed to copy that libslang.1 to the DropTeam/lib
and rename it on the libslang.so.1-UTF8 and when i try to start it does the smae thing....

[poesel71]

You probably need the UTF8 version of that lib and you need to have libslang-utf8.so.1 not libslang.so.1-UTF8.

Which distribution do you have?

[millan]

ehh, it is private distro that made my dad, i mean you don`t know it, it is called Sinux

Where i can get the libslang-utf8.so.1? The sinux doesn`t have any packaging divece so i need the source.

[poesel71]

Sinux? Isn't that the chinese distro? smile.gif

I just checked with my linux box. I also don't have libslang UTF8 on the system and DT doesn't need it anyway.

Do 'ldd SpaceVikings' inside the bin directory. That will list all libs DT is linked to. Libslang is not in this list.

IMHO there is something else going wrong but I'm afraid this is beyond my knowledge. You probably have to ask your system supplier... ;)

[millan]

Heh the sinux is not chinese but czechish. :D
I tryed to run the SpaceVikings binnary and it needs another Lib:
SpaceVikings: error while loading shared libraries: libDemeter.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[poesel71]

No, try to run 'ldd SpaceVikings' (notice 'ldd'? smile.gif )

ldd doesn't look for new libs, it justs lists the libs the aplication needs. libslang is not in this list but you still get the error.

This is a bit strange and my guess is that there is something wrong with the way your libs are set up.
But now I'm out of my depth and I can't help you anymore. I have to say that I use Ubuntu and DT worked out of the box.

These are supplied with the game. You won't get sane results from the ldd command unless you include the lib directory in the list of directories ldd searches.

So - switch to the directory where DropTeam's runClient.sh script is installed and enter:

That means that one of the libraries that the application needs in turn needs other libraries. The linker sorts out all the required symbols and loads the appropriate libraries. Two libraries can even depend on each other and the linker will still get it right :)

The strange thing is, the multiplayer betatest wotrked at all fine, i dont have before any proublems with a game. When the full version was up i stopped play the betatest cause it can`t be more used. After some time (Now) i want to play DT agin so i dowloaded the demo,installed and it wont work.... There must be some big changes in the DTs library reqierements.

Just drop this (http://tbgsoftware.com/libslang-utf8.so.1) one into your DropTeam/lib directory.
