Glibc error

Post by Antion »

Hi, linux noob here.  Enjoyed warzone on windows... would like to play on linux

I use the latest Ubuntu distro...

i get the following error when trying to run the installer...

# Preparing: Warzone 2100
# Checking for required C library versions ... failed
# FAIL:
# Your copy of glibc, a core system library, is too old for this package.
# You need at least the following symbols in glibc: GLIBC_2.0.
#
# This error normally means that whoever built the package did not build it correctly.
# Please report the contents of this message to the provider of this package, and
# ask them to rebuild it using apbuild.
#
# Upgrading glibc is highly dangerous, so we recommend in this situation that you
# compile the app you want to install from the sources if possible. Sorry :(
FAIL:  Unable to prepare package Warzone 2100.
Press ENTER to exit.


Any suggestions?

Hello, I don't know anything about the autopackage but if you use ubuntu you might want to try one of my debian packages for ubuntu dapper drake linux (6.06) with warzone 2100. All you have to do if you use ubuntu 6.06 is to download one of the debian packages and double click on it. :)
If that does't work type these commands:

sudo dpkg -i [package]  <-- to install the package.
sudo apt-get -f install      <-- to solve the dependencies and install the package if it fails with the command above.l

This is NOT an official release of warzone its downloaded from the SVN and is currently only 5 revisions old :)

I've uploaded the lastest packages to a temporary server untill i get some hardware to set up one myself.

Debian Packages:

The package with Warzone 2100 and Warzone commader, a shellscript that might help you to set up the resolution and video mode and stuff like that. (recommended)
http://jocketf.nonlogic.org/warzone2100 ... 1_i386.deb

The one without Warzone Commander, only Warzone 2100
http://jocketf.nonlogic.org/warzone2100 ... 1_i386.deb

Other stuff:

Stand alone version of warzone commander:
http://jocketf.nonlogic.org/warzone2100/wzc-1.5.tar.gz

Source code:
http://jocketf.nonlogic.org/warzone2100 ... 3-1.tar.gz

Thank you and may the alpacas be with you!

You are sure you are using the latest Ubuntu release?
What version of GLibC is shown in the package manager?
What output does

Code: Select all

ls -l /lib/libc*
give?

Latest ubuntu.. fully updated...

Might be because it's the AMD64 version... just now realizing how many problems that can cause...
