single problem in simutrans how do i get it sorted

[ind-pc_student]

hello everybody

I successfully downloaded Simutrans experimental for 64 bit Linux in two parts

Part one the simutrans experimental windows.zip -- contains: objects, packs and complete config files had to delete the .exe file
Part two the precompiled 64bit ./simutrans file

opened the konsole application and did this command "ldd ./simutrans and found a missing file: libbz2.so.1.0 => not found

searched for this libbz on the MG control Center and the result was Lib64bzip2.1 however there is a red symbol just like the no entry sign on the highway code.

what can I do to make it available again, is this a bug?

previously on the mandriva linux it was available and lib64bzip2_1 had sorted the issue libbz2.so.1.0 => not found

i know it is a long question but it is only one!!
thank you in advance for any recommendations you can give me.

P.S. Do not give me the go back to mdv advise if you please...

Means you have it on the system already, and cannot remove it for it's a standard package needed for the distribution.

thank you,

I think i was wrong this time

Has anyone have an idea on how to resolve the libbz2.so.1.0 => not found issue

thanks

mageia has the library /usr/lib/libbz2.so.1 and /usr/lib/libbz2.so.1.0.0

and 64 bit will have similar in lib64

simply create a link to them in that directory.

ie ln -s /usr/lib/libbz2.so.1 /usr/lib/libbz2.so.1.0

regards peter

thanks peter however did not resolve the issue have to ask developers where the game goes to search for that libbz2.so.1.0

i will keep you posted as soon as i get the answer

On a 64bit system the command would rather be

Code: Select all

ln -s /usr/lib64/libbz2.so.1 /usr/lib64/libbz2.so.1.0

that's why Peter only wrote that you would need to create a link and gave a small example.

Aside from ldd, did you test simutrans itself if it runs?

no problems will try again after 2.0 launch and see what updates to this issues are there...
