Trouble with the trunk on (k)ubuntu.

[ed]

I've tried this on two machines now, one with ubuntu, the other on kubuntu (both 7.10), both with the same result.
Happens with both online and local games.
It will play round 1 fine, then crash before the 2nd round begins. Sometimes, if the 1st round is short it will play round 2, then crash after that.
The console out looks like, on this occasion it made it to round 2:

The kubuntu happens to be a fresh install so I can tell you what I did..

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install build-essential automake subversion libboost-dev libxml2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev ftgl-dev libglew-dev bison pkg-config

Seemed to take care of all the dependencies.

Code: Select all

svn co https://armagetronad.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/armagetronad/armagetronad/trunk/armagetronad
cd armagetronad 
./bootstrap.sh 
./configure --prefix ~/tronsvn/binary/
make 
make install

A few warnings, but no errors I could see.

My bad! Thanks for reporting. It was the sparks, when they get removed from the game, an illegal memory operation occurs. It was also present in 0.2.8, and nobody noticed because we're all playing and testing without sparks Update and it should be fixed.

All working. Thanks.

Out of it came a very basic tutorial to running the trunk (at time of writing) on ubuntu:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install build-essential automake subversion libboost-dev libxml2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev ftgl-dev libglew-dev bison pkg-config
svn co https://armagetronad.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/armagetronad/armagetronad/trunk/armagetronad 
cd armagetronad 
./bootstrap.sh 
./configure --prefix ~/tronsvn/binary/ 
make 
make install

simply replace ~/tronsvn/binary/ with the path you want to install it to. This will leave any current arma installations intact.
Then $install_path/bin/armagetronad to run it.
