fabio Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 This issue only happens in Ubuntu 14.04. Upgrading to 16.04 will avoid it.

zzippy Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) If you do not want to update your os and alpha21 on 14.04 you have to build it yourself without that suggested --with-system-mozjs38 option, then it runs. https://play0ad.com/download/source/ Edited December 15, 2016 by zzippy typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrHammy Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 Hi all, New contributor/leech... Have been using 0ad for a long time. All was well until last update now getting very similar error to that shown above. Using Mint 17 - nut Ubuntu 14.04 (unless Mint 17 is derived from it...

sphyrth Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 The base of Mint 17.x is Ubuntu 14.04. The broken 0 A.D. build is one of the release blockers that the developers decided to skip when releasing Alpha 21. Upgrading Mint is the most recommended solution. I didn't think that this particular defect would raise its ugly horns like this. I even had to address a similar complaint in the Mint Forums.

MrHammy Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 (edited) Thanks for the reply sphyrth... When you sat "Upgrading Mint is the most recommended solution" do you mean the Mint maintainers or is it something you recommend I could do? I have noted that zzippy suggest building 0ad from the source files might be an option. is that easy to do? are there any special paramenters I'd need to include (zzippy suggested using "--with-system-mozjs38" as an option. Is there a sticky note that you could point me to on building the game from the source files. Thanks in advance for any help you can supply. [UPDATE - I've looked at the Buildinstructions page (http://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/BuildInstructions#Linux) and it might as well be in martian - I got lost very early and would need much more guidance than the page provides. I've never done anything like that before...] regards MrHammy Edited December 16, 2016 by MrHammy Adding updated information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunChleoc Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 You could update your operating system to Linux Mint 18 Sarah - that's a good idea anyway, since it's a long-term release with support until 2021. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrHammy Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 GunChleoc, thanks for the response. Funnily enough, I have been toying with the idea of moving to Mint 18. Looks like that might be my best option. Is Mint 18 not based on the Ubuntu 14.04 code that is causing the problems? Regards MrHammy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sphyrth Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 @MrHammy Mint 18's base is Ubuntu 16.04. So it doesn't share Mint 17's build problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itms Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 The PPA version has been patched. Please run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade and it should work. Please report if it doesn't, and sorry for the inconvenience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
