Game won't start with current version on OpenSuSe 15.4

[michd89]

I used to play the game with version EE-2022.03.16 on OpenSuSe 15.3 which worked fine. Today I upgraded my OS to 15.4 and the older game version is still working. However when I start the game with the new version EE-2023.06.17 I get the following terminal output:

INFO: Starting...
INFO: Using /home/myHome/.emptyepsilon as configuration path
./EmptyEpsilon: symbol lookup error: ./EmptyEpsilon: undefined symbol: SDL_RWread

Is there anything I have to look after?

edit: I should also tell you that I had to copy the executable EmptyEpsilon from bin to shared/emptyepsilon and execute it from there. Otherwise it doesn't find certain files.

Not sure how, but it is related to you distro/install and multiple SDL versions and conflicts between those.

@daid I managed to run the game by compiling it myself.

I did the following

• Follow the instructions at https://github.com/daid/EmptyEpsilon/wiki/Build%5CLinux%5COpenSuSE
  • Change the version parameters to -DCPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION="2023.06.17" -DCPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION_MAJOR=2023 -DCPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION_MINOR=06 -DCPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION_PATCH=17
• Download the Debian package https://github.com/daid/EmptyEpsilon/releases/download/EE-2023.06.17/Linux_EmptyEpsilon_EE-2023.06.17.deb
  • Go to data.tar.gz, then usr/local/share/emptyepsilon
  • Copy the content of it to builddir
• Start the game in the builddir directory with ./EmptyEpsilon
