Other glibc version then 2.14? #27

Closed jw3126 closed 8 years ago

jw3126 commented 8 years ago

I am trying to install SFML.jl on a linux machine and read the install instructions. They insist on glibc 2.14, however I don't want to downgrade it (I use 2.23). Is there a chance to get SFML.jl to work anyway?

zyedidia commented 8 years ago

What kind of error are you getting? Because I'm managing to run the package on a system with glibc 2.21. The problem is it's always a bit finicky and I'm not sure how strict of a requirement glibc 2.14 is. I would think having a more recent version shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks for the fast response! If I Pkg.add SFML.jl it builds without complaining. However when I try to run an example I get the following error:

It seems like you don't have GLEW installed and that's causing the problem. Have you run sudo apt-get install libsfml-dev? (assuming you are running debian)

jw3126 commented 8 years ago

Yeah I am running ubuntu16.04 and I did install sudo apt-get install libsfml-dev.

jw3126 commented 8 years ago

My libsfml-dev version is 2.3.2+dfsg-1.

zyedidia commented 8 years ago

Ok try running sudo apt-get install libglew1.10 and see if that fixes things.

jw3126 commented 8 years ago

It works now, though I had to install libglew1.10 manually, since apt-get complains that its obsolete. Thanks very much!

Or maybe there is still a problem, space shooter crashes after a few seconds

I will try some more examples.

zyedidia commented 8 years ago

I don't think that's an issue with sfml.jl but rather with spaceshooter.jl. See zyedidia/SpaceShooter.jl#1.

jw3126 commented 8 years ago

Okay, the examples included in SFML.jl work!
