Winston,

I had installed GNUStep when I installed v1.6 and later upgraded it when 1.7 required it.

Does this mean that I can uninstall the GNUStep package itself?

Praise Be Winston! I only just noticed Oolite is in my "Games" folder on the menu - and it works!

Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you!

@DaddyHoggy
I had to alter my /usr/bin/oolite in order to make it run.

Could you, please, open a terminal, execute the following command, and post the result?

Code: Select all

tail -15 /usr/bin/oolite

@Winston
I have downloaded the package from
http://download.berlios.de/oolite-linux ... 86.package
and it fails to execute, reporting bad checksum.

Has anyone else downloaded the package from BerliOS?

(EDIT 10/Jan/2009)
I downloaded it again and it executes fine!

@Getafix - that's where I got mine from!

On my lappy at the moment - will post the details you requested next time I'm on the main machine.

@Getafix - glad you're up and running again - in case you need this:

Code: Select all

john@new-ubuntu:~$ tail -15 /usr/bin/oolite
export GNUSTEP_NETWORK_ROOT=$OOLITE_ROOT/$TOPLEVEL/oolite-deps/GNUstep/Local
export GNUSTEP_LOCAL_ROOT=$OOLITE_ROOT/$TOPLEVEL/oolite-deps/GNUstep/Local
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$OOLITE_ROOT/$TOPLEVEL/oolite-deps/lib
cd $OOLITE_ROOT/$TOPLEVEL/oolite.app
./oolite
if [ $? != 0 ]
then
   echo
   echo "Erk. It looks like Oolite died with an error. When making an error"
   echo "report, please copy + paste the log above into the report."
   echo
   echo "(Press Ctrl-C to continue)"
   cat
fi
