After a recent interview with Quentin Bolsee, the lead developer of the game ColorCube, I downloaded the demo version of his game. ColorCube is a simple nice puzzle game that can keep you occupied for hours.
But I had to find out that the program did not start on my main machine.
The command
ldd Launcher
quickly revealed that it a 32 bit application, and various libraries were missing on my 64 bit system.
The package ia32-libs which provide 32 libraries for 64 bit systems does understandably not contain all libraries that may be installed on a 32 bit system. A simple work-around is to copy these files from a 32 bit set-up (/usr/lib) to the 64 bit system (/usr/lib32).
Don't forget to set the file owner to root on the target system., and keep in mind that those libraries will not be updated.
In order go get ColorCube running, I needed to copy the following libraries:
libHalf.so.6
libIlmImf.so.6
libIlmThread.so.6
libspeex.so.1
libtheora.so.0
libIex.so.6
libImath.so.6
libraw1394.so.11
libusb-1.0.so.0
Happy gaming...
