"Incompatible (spring 95)" w/ SpringLobby and Spring PPA

Post by tzaeru »

Hey,

I added Spring from https://launchpad.net/~spring/+archive/ppa

Currently, it's version number is 95.0 (not 0.95, if that matters), gotten from "spring --version" and I have a ton of "Incompatible (spring 95)" hosts in battle list. Using SpringLobby.

The static linux binaries for 0.95 worked fine.

Don't install your new spring on top of your old spring, remove old spring first or install new to new dir. (If you did do that, its not the only possible cause).

apt-get remove spring, apt-get install spring and removing ~/.spring (save maps, mods and demos) fixed it. :P

Yes. I had same problem. Remember to also remove ~/.springrc if you are not planning to run pre 95 spring on your system.

95.0 is correct! we are far beyond browser versions ;)

I think Chrome is gonna catch up soon, tho.

On a less-related note, I still can't seem to be able to change hotkeys with SpringSettings for the default profile and can't figure out how to put a new profile to use.. :oops:

Hi there,

It seems I have the "same" issue.
SpringLobby_2.png
(18.2 KiB) Downloaded 1 time
(Translation : I should have the 95.0, but I only have the 95 version)


This point is confirmed when launching springlobby from terminal.

Code: Select all

~ $ springlobby
Found spring version: 95
Loading from: /usr/games/lib64/libunitsync.so
Using new style map-info fetching (GetMap*() functions).

But not confirm when launching spring from terminal

Code: Select all

~ $ spring --version
Spring 95.0
Note :
I've installed spring and springlobby after removing all files and directories (this include ~.springrc ~.spring ~.springlobby)
Spring is running fine when launched from terminal (and playing test mode)
My kernel is linux-3.10.17-gentoo (I can give more info if needed)

Is it a config issue ? How to solve this problème ?

I've compiled Spring and SpringLobby for Gentoo and got same issue with version (springlobby complains what I need 95.0 version but I have 95).
Then i've downloaded precompiled spring (static for x64) and got same message.

Any help would be appreciated.

@Papyrus:

I've builded spring and lobby from git. Springlobby now tells me what I don't have spring engine and offers me to download it.
BTW i found in springlobby settings checkbox to do not check version of engine. Now when I join battleroom it warn me about engine version but after join normally and works like a charm.

PS: so I've tried build spring+springlobby from gentoo overlay, build from git sources and tried static spring with springlobby from overlay - everywhere incompatible spring 95 version.

I move from Gentoo to Xubuntu 13.10.
All is fine now.
maybe I'll go back to Gentoo as soon as I'm less noob :)
Thx all

Must report what in latest springlobby version 0.175 in Gentoo now all works fine, no more complains about version number. Thank to whoever fixed this.
