This installation doesn't support glibc-2.1 on Linux / x86

[Bloke]

I'm trying to install savage, and this is the error I receive:


one@localhost:~/Desktop$ ./INSTALL.linux
This installation doesn't support glibc-2.1 on Linux / x86

Please contact Loki Technical Support at support@lokigames.com


How can this be fixed?

Whats in your logs? Can you check the spec's required to run it?

Which logs?

My system "spec's" are fine. This exact system with FC3 ran the game fine.

I might need a later version of glibc Fedora uses semi-bleeding edge versions of programs. Sorry for not repling sooner I've been away.

Thats an FC3 box that I have.

Can multiple versions of gcc exist on the same system? Or is it impossible being the system is built around a specific version of gcc?

Sure, no problem. I have gcc-3.3, gcc-3.4, and gcc-4.0, all from Synaptic. 3.3 is the default, which I get if I type "gcc" alone.

But I don't think that helps you. It's a different glibc it wants, not gcc. Have you contacted Loki Technical Support?

Hmm... it's complaining about glibc-2.1, but current Hoary (you are on Hoary, right?) is at 2.3.2. Looks like a bogus check.

If you are running an AMD64 machine, not x86 then you are gonna have to use the command linux32 to install it. You will have to get this from synaptic/kynaptic.

I contacted Loki support first thing. My email was returned saying they dont exist.

I'm runnin Hoary 5.04 / Gnome 2.10.0 / kernel 2.6.10-5-686.

If its a bogus check, can I 'trick' the installer to not check gcc?

I found this on another board, but I dont understand how to "set LD_PRELOAD" (if it will help):

Yeah I'm also waiting for the linux version!
Anyone knows if it requires a specefic glibc?
Is there a list of requirtments for the Linux version?


reply:
I know that it requires to set LD_PRELOAD
environment variable if you have gcc-3.2.x
to libstdc++.so.5.0.1
