[RESOLVED] Error running on arch (from community repo)

[Adam Cripps]

When running 0ad I get the following problem:

/usr/bin/pyrogenesis: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_filesystem.so.1.55.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory 

I have checked out whether I have boost-libs installed (which seems to have the file liboost_filesystem.so with:

spark: ~ :  sudo pacman -Ss boost[sudo] password for adam: extra/boost 1.55.0-4 [installed]    Free peer-reviewed portable C++ source libraries - Developmentextra/boost-libs 1.55.0-4 [installed]    Free peer-reviewed portable C++ source libraries - Runtime

which shows it up as being installed - what else should I be checking for?

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling boost-libs but it didn't work.

Have you tried reinstallig 0ad? If that doesn't help check if the libboost_filesystem.so.1.55.0 exist in the file system. Also try to redownload both 0ad and boost-libs if that doesn't work (remove them from the cache (/var/cache/pacman/).

The file exists - quite strange as the arch install doesn't recognise 0ad as a package - so trying:

sudo pacman -R 0ad 

gives

error: target not found: 0ad

Can you run

pacman -Qo /usr/bin/pyrogenesis

?

It looks like your install of 0ad is messed up, how did you install it?

OK - moving the files by hand and reinstalling seems to have fixed this. Thanks.
