libopenal and wiki bug

by Fabian Hernandez-3 :: Rate this Message:

Hi, I just tried to start pipmak on my Linux Jauny and got the following
error:
error while loading shared libraries: libopenal.so.0: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory
I checked and I have libopenal1 and libopenal-dev installed. Maybe
Pipmak expects libopenal0? Should it not work with both?

Also I noticed that in the Pipmak Wiki the Navigation is not displayed
correctly on Firefox on all platforms and IE7+ on windoze.

Cheers

Hello coCoKNIght, nice to hear from you again!

It does expect libopenal0 because that was what was current when it was
built on Debian 4. Have a look at this thread:
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.games.devel.pipmak.user/549>. Apparently
it's sufficient to symlink libopenal.so.1 to libopenal.so.0. If you
can't get it to work, hopefully Aidan will be able to help you, he's our
Linux guru.

Thanks, that has also been reported before. Because we will soon move
away from this wiki due to spam and maintenance reasons I haven't
bothered trying to fix it. See
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.games.devel.pipmak.user/560/focus=568>.

Thanks! Yeah, you're right. I used the command "locate libopenal.so.1"
to see where it lives and then noticed that it's actually just a symlik,
so I copied it and renamed the copy to "libopenal.so.0". Pipmak works
fine now.

Yeah, I kinda figured this would be known but wantend to mention it
anyway, just in case.

Linux *guru*?  I just fake it most of the time. ;)

I've put a Linux build of r221 up on the Internet:
<http://sine.cluenet.org/~wgsilkie/pipmak-r221-linux-i686.tar.bz2>.  Try that
and, see if it works out-of-the-box (so reverse anything you did to make the
official release (0.2.7) work, otherwise we won't know if it works without
making a symlink to an openal .so file).

This is what I get:
error while loading shared libraries: libphysfs-1.0.so.0: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
I then installed libphysfs-1.0-0 and Pipmak started up fine without the
libopenal.so.0 symlink.

Interesting.  I'm glad to see it worked OK for you.  Did you have another
version installed before?  I want to know, because I need to make sure that
the next release of Pipmak will be able to find it's libraries.

Thanks,
Aidan
