new client missing libXdmcp.so.6

[bilbous]

Looks like my Centos 4 (based on RHEL 4) is not going to cut the mustard. any suggestions?

I'll update the libs package for it in a few hours when I get back from lectures.

It's a dependency for libX11.so.6 in the libs/ directory.

mv libX11.so.6 no-libX11.so.6

cured the problem for me.


edit:
that of course means "use your system libX11 and not the one provided inside the libs/ directory". I wonder if one should try to use as many libs as possible from the system and revert to the ones provided with the client only if something goes wrong. I had also to disable libasound (and use the system one).

Unfortunately providing the right libs is quite a pain, because every distro seems to have different versions or names of versions. It doesn't matter too much which you use, as long as the game runs

If you have it, run fixlibs.sh to get the updated libs; if you don't then just download the appropriate tar and extract:

http://download.xordan.com/64bitlibs.tar.bz2

Thanks Xordan that worked.
