No updated repository, trying to build on my own just fails.
Posted: 16 Oct 2010, 13:00
Yesterday the engine just suddenly got updated while in the middle of the game and next time I was in the lobby I couldn't join any battle. I tryied several times to add repositories links to my Ubuntu system in case something was wrong but it seems the repository just didn't get updated(so only Win owners can play and developers).
I got the source in a tarball thanks to some guy in the chatroom and I followed the spring wiki on how to build from source on your own but just got a bunch of failures. Seems like I don't have all the dependencies even I tryied to install them manually(as they are namely listed in the wiki). Still after that I got some errors and one guy in the chatroom suggested that I run "sudo apt-get spring-dep" or sth but that didn't work. I just got:
So today I woke up and checked the repository and still nothing. I tried going line through line in the terminal to see which dependencies are not able to be found. That went ok until I read this:
From synaptic I can't find any file that is similiar to x11-xcursor*
I am filling now my harddisk probably with things I don't really need so would apreciate a little help here. I kinda waited all week so I can play the damn game
Some tip for the developers: Start throwing people away from the lobby just when everyone has the opportunity to update the engine -> Don't require from users to have the new engine when there is noway to get it.
