Error on startup: Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-close.c: 731: _dl_close

I recently upgraded from Kubuntu 9.10 to 10.04. When I tried to start up PS I got this error:

Code: [Select]

Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-close.c: 731: _dl_close: Assertion `map->l_init_called' failed!

After a bit of digging around and googling I found that is was something to do with the openal sound.

After further playing around and a bit of luck, I uninstalled libopenal1 and it went away.

Seeing as 10.04 will be released in a few days, this may crop up in other peoples Kubuntu computers.

Hope this helps.

I'm trying to run it on Debian Sid but unfortunately I can't uninstall libopenal1 because lot a packages depends on it so it's not a possible solution :-(

Thanks anyway.

Seeing as 10.04 will be released in a few days, this may crop up in other peoples Kubuntu computers.

In fact this affects not only 10.04 Kubuntu, but also Ubuntu users.

The fix by weltall worked for me. Unpack the deb, rename the library and move it to the libs folder in PlaneShift installation. Worked for me.

Another solution is to compile the client from source. I compiled a static version of the client and it works great.
