Hello!
My name is Albert, I'm from Russia
Can someone help me please!
I'm using Linux Mandriva 2009.1 x64 and my Oolite v.1.72 is reporting:

Code: Select all

2009-09-09 15:31:26.124 oolite[25799] File NSUserDefaults.m: 561. In [NSUserDefaults +standardUserDefaults] Improper installation: No language locale found
Fatal signal: Floating Point Exception (SDL Parachute Deployed)

Erk. It looks like Oolite died with an error. When making an error
report, please copy + paste the log above into the report.
What it means and how I can fix it???

Hi Albert,

You should really have started a new thread as your error is completely unrelated. However, I've seen this error in the past when I've had a broken install of GNUstep and/or incorrect GNUStep paths configured.

Did this error suddenly start occurring, or have you always had it?
Also, what language is your computer running in - russian?

How did you install Oolite - the autopackage, or build from source yourself?

Cheers,
- Micha.

The .package is for 32bit OS (Intel and AMD CPUs) .
For 64bit OS (Intel & AMD CPUs) you should install:
oolite-data_1.73.3-1_all.deb
oolite_1.73.3-1_amd64.deb
from here.

Is that what you did?

Split Merceray's question to a separate topic.

Firstly, I think Mandriva is RPM-based.

Secondly, the current .deb packages are build for Ubuntu Jaunty, and most likely won't work on another DEB-based system.

Even though the actual executable should be fine, there are no dependencies included in the package (it's assumed they will be downloaded and installed automatically by apt, so it will only work if the distro happens to have roughly the same versions of the required libraries as Jaunty, and that they are already installed) and the places where the files are installed may not be correct for another distribution.


@Merceray, you may need to install some additional 32-bit compatibility libraries if you installed from the autopackage. Exactly how you do that on Mandriva I'm not sure. You can use the 'ldd' tool to figure out which ones you may be missing.

Considering your problems started suddenly, the question to ask is what changed. Did you install a new version of GNUStep? Or some other application?

Apart from suggesting that you re-install GNUStep I'm not sure what it could be.

You could try converting the deb files using alien.

If you can wait, I am currently downloading "mandriva-linux-free-2009.1-x86_64.iso",
to try it myself. I'll come back with some feedback on this, I hope today. :wink:
