luke@luke-desktop:~$ '/home/luke/ufoai/ufo'

 I have been trying to find a answer  and have tryed all everything listed on this page : http://ufoai.ninex.info/wiki/index.php/Debian

I have been playing the original xcom series since i was a boy and i would love to get this baby running to see how it compares.

Do you have curl installed?

Try:
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev

Maybe the filename is different. Look for it by running:
Code: [Select]
locate libcurl.so

Maybe you don't have /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4 but /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4.0.1 or so (with more detailed version). If that's the case you can make a symbolic link on it by running
Code: [Select]
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4.0.1 /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4
(change the version to your's)

I hope this help. ;)
