Steam client fails on Ubuntu 19.04

[clrg]

Opening the game from Steam fails silently.

Apologies; don't know why code blocks are eating line breaks so you get sucky formatting instead.

Output from the terminal:

~/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Argentum Age$ ./anura ./anura: error while loading shared libraries: libGLEW.so.1.10: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Oh, I'm notified on Discord that I need to specify '--module=citadel'...

Eep!

Related: ein_waschechter_yugioh_lappen#4267@Discord claims that the Steam distribution "runs just fine" in her/his ubuntu 19.04 installation.

Would suggest labelling irreproducible but leaving open issue for now.

I think the steam build depends on libglew 1.10

You can "start" to solve this by installing the old libglew1.10 by finding the package libglew1.10_1.10.0-3_amd64.deb This is probably not recommended but might solve the issue. You might then get another dependency error (stx something if I remember correctly).

Hi, I am the person who claimed it ran on Ubuntu 19.04 but having the exact same issue on 20.04 now when using the Steam Build. Running Anura with: LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/$USER/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Argentum Age/runtime" ./anura --module=citadel

libglew 1.10 is in the library Path and maybe the build should be updated ? I mean libglew1.10 is quite a few years old now.

You could expect it to get raised up to date after some proof that it's is so aged it causes issues. I doubt it any time before.

You could develop that update yourself, then I guess you should make sure no Windows, Linux or macOS builds suffer. Related, there's no longer a working CI configuration for Anura (no surprise it's broken at the time of writing).

Dbus type is invalid, and exporting a new dbus launch (export $(dbus-launch)) doesn't make this go away, right?

[GSchuemann]

No, but got a bit further by simply googling the error. I found this: https://steamcommunity.com/app/561740/discussions/0/1753528725227441171/ for the game "MidBoss". So I tried LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/$USER/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Argentum Age/runtime" LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libSDL2-2.0.so.0 ./anura --module=citadel

and I get past the dbus error and got now: ./anura: symbol lookup error: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxcb-dri3.so.0: undefined symbol: xcb_send_request_with_fds

Adding a LIBGL_DRI3_DISABLE=1 to the launch commands let's me start the game.

[galegosimpatico]

Awesome!

I think I've read some of those scattered at the Discord server, but you made an extraordinary compendia! :)
