I found this on another site, And it is the same problem I am having:

Quote:

When I start the game "fillets: I got:

/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "liblua.so" not found, required
by "fillets"

I have lua installed but there are no liblua.so.
Recompiling the fillets ports is likely to fix this. Let us know if it
doesn't.

Good luck,

Doug

I did recompile lua and fillets-ng and it works.

How the *insert favorite swear word* do I recompile it?

You will have to download the source in order to recompile, hence that what compiling means. Can I ask what distro you are using?

I am using Dreamlinux (Debian based) ... The newest version, Just installed a week or 2 ago.

By the source, that means, I should search google for Liblua.so and see what pops up?

Search for the lua source code and run the normal configure, make, and make install. That should do it for that.

So I downloaded Source Pkg for liblua

did

Quote:

$cd <Liblua dir>

Followed by

Quote:

make

(got a return that said directory does not exist, Went to the Makefile included in liblua, and edited directories where it would go to everything mine say)

Ran

Quote:

make install

and this is where my terminal is now:

I seem to be missing something (By which I mean doing it wrong), all those DIRs exists ... I've seen 'em.

Here's screenshots: Lua folder exists, I go in and see 5.1. But the 5.1 folder is empty:
