Linux tester wanted

I would greatly appreciate if any Linux users who do NOT have Allegro5 installed would be able to test my game quickly to check that I’ve got the static linking correct (I know I’ve messed it up before…). Here’s a link to the .zip

I just need to be sure that the game runs and displays a window, so long as it does that I’m happy (for now :) )

Thanks in advance

It’s fine on my Linux Mint 12 :)

What am I meant to be running? a.out?

I got the same problem as willh also on Ubuntu 12.04 64bit trying same steps. I tried installing libjpeg62 from the Ubuntu Software Center, tried again, got same error. I don’t know if I need to restart, but I’m not prepared to do that right now.

abe, willh, TastyOrange, Thanks for testing that for me. I suspect the problem is that it expects 32-bit libs not 64-bit ones, but to be honest I’m not prepared to spend too much time tracking down this issue since it seems to affect a subset of linux users. Sorry :(

Ah well, it’s the way the cookie crumbles.
