linux problems, no language
geever:
Hi,
I've found your game last week. Let me gratulate, it's very good!
However I have some trouble with the linux version:
First I've downloaded the "installer" which didn't run. It was complaining about missing curl4 library. I have a Debian stable (4.0) system which contains only curl3. I tried to make a symlink on the library which seemed to work at least for this problem. The next was about GLIBC2.4... At this point I've decided to compile it for my system.
I downloaded the latest 2.2 source from svn, compiled it (configure;make;make install), then unpacked the ufoai-data package to the requested dir. I've started the game. Works, just the language is 'No Language', and there are no more options in the menu. The language files exists, in /usr/local/share/ufoai/base/i18n just the game can't recognize them, maybe. Can you help me solving this problem?
Thanks,
Geever
BTAxis:
You can do make lang to compile the language files. I think.
geever:
I did it and make install seems to do it too but no effect.
Should I compile the maps or there are compiled versions (most) of them in the data package? Because map compilation is too slow... I tried to compile them once but stopped after 6hours(!!) (I had to go work.) I have an Athlon XP 2000+ (eff.1667Mhz) w. 1G ram should it take more than 6 hours to compile the maps on it? Can this cause the language problem?

There are - see our sourceforge.net download mirrors http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=157793

no
Schmorgluck:
Well, typing "make lang" simply doesn't work if you have not performed certain actions that I can't describe here because I can't find what they are, since they are not explained in the wiki or anywhere else I've looked for.
It seems we're supposed to guess.
