error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3

There is also the option to use IRC. The page http://www.debian.org/support has a section on how to proceed with that.

[10:50]    <will>    we support Debian here
[10:50]    <ClevelandRock>    The Ubuntu forums actually asked me to ask you guys.
[10:50]    <ansgar>    !ubuntu
[10:50]    <dpkg>    Ubuntu is based on Debian, but it is not  Debian, and it is unlikely to live up to Debian's standards (see  <Debian policy>). Only Debian is supported on #debian. Use #ubuntu  (irc.freenode.net) instead. Even if the channel happens to be less  helpful, support for distributions other than Debian is offtopic on  #debian. See also <based on debian>.
[10:50]    <will>    ask at #ubuntu
[10:50]    <will>    for ubuntu
[10:50]    <abrotman>    ClevelandRock: that's just silly, really it is
[10:50]    <will>    wow
[10:51]    <will>    crazy guys at #ubuntu
[10:51]    <will>    :-D
[10:51]    <ClevelandRock>    But I apparently need this package,  and I get a 404 error on all of the mirrors:  http://packages.debian.org/etch/libstdc%2B%2B2.10-glibc2.2
[10:51]    <bartm>    ClevelandRock: you could try installing  debian, reproduce the problem (if you can), and come back to ask the  question here :)
[10:51]    <will>    may be you just misunderstood
[10:51]    <themill>    ClevelandRock: (a) don't mix distros like that and (b) /topic.
[10:51]    <abrotman>    ClevelandRock: that will likely break  your system, and this still is not an ubuntu support channel
[10:52]    <ClevelandRock>    Well, alright.
[10:52]    <ansgar>    ClevelandRock: Etch is no longer on the  normal mirrors, only on archive.debian.org. And installing packages for a  different distribution (or even just a different release) will often  not work anyway.
[10:53]    <ClevelandRock>    Thanks. I'll let the forum know.

Edit: #ubuntu was no help. They, too, recommended not installing Debian packages on Ubuntu. I found the guy who ported the game to Linux on Facebook, so, hopefully he'll respond. I doubt he will. Haha.

You can get the package from this link: http://archive.debian.org/debian/poo....4-27_i386.deb. After downloading you can proceed to installation.

The package only has the following files in /usr/lib:

• libstdc++-3-libc6.2-2-2.10.0.so
• libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3

and a documentation folder in /usr/share/doc. You can browse its contents with the standard graphical archiver app shipped with Ubuntu.

I do not believe it can break your system. Although the advice is valid as a general rule, in this particular case (a simple package that does not override existing binaries in your distro) the warning can be ignored.

I've gotten farther than I could before, but now I get this error when I try to load the single-player game. I think it's a game-specific error, unfortunately.

Edit: After some searching, I eventually found a fix for this. For the record, the above error was fixed by editing wolfxp.x86 in a hex editor, replacing the string "GL_EXTENSIONS: %s" with "GL_EXTENSIONS: % " (the last character in the string is a space). That would mean I can finally mark this thread as "solved". Thank you so very much for your help.
