Entropy Report post Posted January 3, 2011 Not sure what the problem is, PM Bluap about it, he maintains the Ubuntu version. However, you can go to the download page and manually update the game (binaries and data are provided). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If not, url pls? nm, download page == http://www.eternal-lands.com/page/download.php I seem to have it working now. Downloaded update from url above, did "sudo file-roller" from terminal, (if using other than Ubuntu, use 'dpkg -L' or equivalent to get the install path right) used file-roller to extract all files to /usr/share/games/EternalLands, did sudo chmod 755 el.x86_64.linux.bin (I have 64-bit machine, use other .bin file for 32-bit) and it works. Use ./el.x86_64.linux.bin to run or add it to your $PATH. To get the new version working from your GNOME menus, sudo gedit /usr/games/eternallands and change this part: # run the client, display error log if it crashes if ! /usr/games/el.x86.linux.bin $config $* &> ~/.elc/terminal_log.txt to this: # run the client, display error log if it crashes if ! /usr/share/games/EternalLands/el.x86_64.linux.bin $config $* &> ~/.elc/terminal_log.txt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bluap Report post Posted January 3, 2011 This version is no longer supported, please update! http://www.eternal-lands.com/index.php?content=update The updated packages were available a couple of days before the server update required them. Did you do a manual check with the update manager? As the package are not, and could not be marked as security updates, they may not be offered to you automatically for a few days after they are available.

bluap Report post Posted January 3, 2011 To get the new version working from your GNOME menus, sudo gedit /usr/games/eternallands and change this part: You do not need to make that edit! You appear to be getting the Ubuntu/Debian package confused with the universal (any disto) version. The packages are self contained and updates are offered automatically by your package manager. You do not need to manually download anything. The fact that 1.9.1 is an update not a full release is handled automatically by the package install functions. The el_linux_update_191.zip file available from the updates section of the downloads page is needed only if you are not installing the Ubuntu/Debian packages. In this case, you will need to have the previous release already installed then unpack and copy the update file over the top of that - replacing any existing files.

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04, here's what aptitude show says about the package currently: aptitude show eternallands Package: eternallands New: yes State: installed Automatically installed: no Version: 1.9.0-1~getdeb1 Priority: optional Section: games Maintainer: GetDeb Package Ninjas <package.ninjas@getdeb.net> Uncompressed Size: 2,425k Depends: libc6 (>= 2.7), libcal3d12, libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1), libgl1-mesa-glx | libgl1, libglu1-mesa | libglu1, libopenal1, libpng12-0 (>= 1.2.13-4), libsdl-image1.2 (>= 1.2.5), libsdl-net1.2, libsdl1.2debian (>= 1.2.10-1), libstdc++6 (>= 4.4.0), libvorbis0a (>= 1.1.2), libvorbisfile3 (>= 1.1.2), libx11-6 (>= 0), libxml2 (>= 2.7.4), zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4), eternallands-data (>= 1.9.0), zenity Recommends: eternallands-sound (>= 1.9.0) Suggests: eternallands-music (>= 1.9.0) Conflicts: eternallands-cvs (< 1.9.0), eternallands-rc, eternallands-rc-data Description: the client package for Eternal Lands, a free MMORPG Eternal Lands is a free to play, graphical MMORPG (massively-multi-player online role-playing game). Different from other role-playing games, there are no fixed classes so you can improve any of the many skills. There is a choice of several character races but all are equal. Homepage: http://www.eternal-lands.com This is the install from the PPA referenced in the link to the Ubuntu wiki in the OP. The source appears to be the same as the PlayDeb package, which I originally had installed. I removed that package and installed the one from the aforementioned PPA earlier today. On a separate note, when I attempt to run the el.x86_64.linux.bin (still there since I installed it manually and didn't remove it) I get this error: el.x86_64.linux.bin: new_actors.c:1082: add_enhanced_actor_from_server: Assertion `!"Using old client data" || actors_defs[actor_type].neck != ((void *)0)' failed. Aborted I don't know what any of that means, but I hope it's useful information for devs / maintainers. I'm willing to wait a week or so for the packages in the PPA to update if necessary. Also I don't expect to use the thing I installed manually, so I'm not expecting an answer regarding the error message, I just thought it might be helpful to point it out.

korrode Report post Posted January 5, 2011 (edited) Version: 1.9.0-1~getdeb1 Priority: optional Section: games Maintainer: GetDeb Package Ninjas <package.ninjas@getdeb.net> The package you have installed is not the latest one from bluap's PPA (it doesn't look like it's from his PPA at all, it looks like it's from GetDeb repos). You can see here: https://launchpad.net/~pjbroad/+archive/ppa That 1.9.1 is the version currently available from the PPA. Sure you removed the GetDeb repo from your sources.list and properly added the PPA?, and refreshed your repo package lists before installing?

Looking in "software sources", I saw that the key for the PPA was in there, but not the APT line. Synaptic is now installing the new version. Thanks for the advice! I feel a fool for not checking that sooner. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
