[SOLVED] Can't run steam on multilib slackware current

MarioMaster100 · 05-24-2016, 11:35 PM

I have a working multilib setup and I'm running on slack current. I have installed alienbob's multilib packages and I have run massconvert32.sh and upgradepkg --install-new on all of them. Steam complains with this every time

Code:

Couldn't find dpkg, please update steamdeps for your distribution.

Seems you forgot to install package glibc-2.23_multilib-x86_64-1alien.txz. You should also check that packages below are installed :

You get this because one (or more) of the packages below is not installed :

Well I have those packages

Code:

ls /var/log/packages|grep glibc
glibc-2.23_multilib-x86_64-1alien
glibc-i18n-2.23_multilib-x86_64-1alien
glibc-profile-2.23_multilib-x86_64-1alien
glibc-solibs-2.23_multilib-x86_64-1alien
glibc-zoneinfo-2016d-noarch-1

and

Code:

 ls /var/log/packages|grep gnutls
gnutls-3.4.11-x86_64-1
gnutls-compat32-3.4.11-x86_64-1compat32

I guess steam just can't figure that one out.

Strange I just downloaded Steam from with sbopkg from current and it worked fine. I even downloaded a game and it worked perfectly.

Had not got around to installing with current but I use it with 14.1.

Glad there is no problem with it.

As far as it not working for you can you run other 32bit programs without a problem ?

After I install multilib I always install Doom 3 to make sure it is working

I wonder if they will port the current Doom I like that one

MarioMaster100 · 05-25-2016, 09:47 PM

Yeah I ran a music program that was only 32bit fine, steam apparently hates me :/

notKlaatu · 05-25-2016, 09:54 PM

I ran into this exact same problem, but ONLY when running a game called Bound By Flame. You're not, by chance, trying to run that game are you?

MarioMaster100 · 05-25-2016, 10:01 PM

I don't have that game and the problem is when simply running

Code:

steam

, the program itself.

I was just discussing how much it sucks that we can't even count on native versions of id titles anymore.

Out of curiosity, should I stick with multilib with 14.2 to ensure my Steam games work? I am pretty sure I screwed some things up, but I haven't run into any problems yet. I was going to skip multilib next time since I don't think I need it.

Where'd you get steam?

And what is the output of:

Code:

locate libc.so.6
grep libc.so.6 /var/log/packages/*

I'm also curious about this line. If you got all of his multilib packages, there's no need to run massconvert32.sh. That is only if you have a 32bit tree of Slackware-current and want to create your own compat32 packages rather than using his. There is no need to run massconvert32.sh on 32bit pacakges that are already designed for installation on a 64bit Slackware install.

Note:
The grep will return nothing. libc.so.6 is a symlink (/lib/libc.so.6 -> libc-2.23.so) , created by doinst.sh from glibc-2.23_multilib (and glibc-solibs-2.23_multilib).

This needs a bit of clarification then.

The only official "multilib packages" that I carry in my repository are the multilib versions of glib and gcc, and the compat32-tools package was added so that you can create a set of compatibility packages and are able to run and compile software on Slackware.
The massconvert32.sh script is provided by the compat32-tools package and allows you to create a default set of packages which together create a 32bit compatibility layer on top of your 64bit installation of Slackware - hence the "-compat32" strings in their package names.

I do offer a directory "slackware64-compat32" in my multilib repository for every version of 64bit Slackware, which contains all the "-compat32" packages converted from the official 32bit Slackware using the massconvert32.sh script. That directory and its content was only added because a lot of people asked for ready-made compat32 packages instead of running the massconvert32.sh script themselves. Really, it saves you a few minutes at most when you do not have to run "massconvert32.sh"... but there you have it.

With the introduction of the "slackpkg+" extension to slackpkg it became a lot more convenient to have these re-packaged "-compat32" packages already available in the multilib repository because maintenance of your multilib layer becomes a lot easier using it. So I left the "slackware64-compat32" directory in, and keep updating it with the latest packages. However keep in mind that for me keeping the content of "slackware64-compat32" up to date is not a high priority.

Alright I figured out the problem if you run brew (linuxbrew.sh), don't add ~/.linuxbrew/ to your path and it doesn't do this nonsense to you.
