Spring Cannot Get Unitsync Version

sort
chessmaster942 11 years ago I'm currently running Arch Linux, and I've installed spring and springlobby from the official repositories, but when I start springlobby I cannot play online, as it gives me the error: Couldn't Get Your Spring Versions From Any Unitsync Library How do I fix this? +1 / -0
Anarchid 11 years ago (edited 11 years ago) 1) fire this into console: $ locate unitsync.so 2) it will return something like: /usr/lib/spring/libunitsync.so 3) then, in springlobby settings, put the line it returned as your unitsync location. 4) ??? 5) PROFIT! If locate doesn't succeed, then you're out of luck, and questions emerge about quality of archlinux' packaging; best bet is to compile spring yourself then. +0 / -0
chessmaster942 11 years ago This worked perfectly thanks. I will admit that packaging quality gets a little off, as they're supported by the community. +0 / -0
ElTorero 11 years ago yay another Arch user btw, the springlobby from repositories eats like 500mb and 100%cpu when started, don't you have the same problem? I had to switch to notalobby because of that +0 / -0
chessmaster942 11 years ago I'm not experiencing that, although it does eat quite a bit of memory and CPU :\| +0 / -0

IM_AWAY_RING_ME 11 years ago if you get: bash: locate: command not found at step one. you can type: sudo find / -name libunitsync.so insted. +0 / -0
IM_AWAY_RING_ME 11 years ago also, currently you need spring 91 to play and official arch repo install 93.2 To verrify your current version: Spring -V To install 91 version (must have been alredy installod on your OS): sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/spring-0.91.0-4-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz Source: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Downgrade_packages +0 / -0
[V]sheep 11 years ago using locate (or find) is like using a starlight to kill fleas... it works, but. I don't even know arch linux (nor do i bother)... but if you use a packaged spring, I'm pretty sure you can use a command to list files owned by this package. Something analogous to "dpkg -L" for debian-based distros. +0 / -0
[I]burp 11 years ago "btw, the springlobby from repositories eats like 500mb and 100%cpu when started, don't you have the same problem? " This is normal for springlobby, it has always been like that. +0 / -0
IM_AWAY_RING_ME 11 years ago I d'ont get the 100% cpu problem. From the package info: Version : 0.169-1 Download Size : 2147.77 KiB Installed Size : 9492.00 KiB Depends On : hicolor-icon-theme wxgtk curl libtorrent-rasterbar boost-libs alure Optional Deps : sdl sdl_sound sdl_mixer Depends are not included in the package size +0 / -0
