DF on Fedora Core 15 problems
« on: October 27, 2011, 04:45:03 pm »

Hi, I just got a new-to-me laptop (IBM T60) and I slapped Fedora Core 15 on it so I could give Gnome 3 a whirl (loving it so far). But now I'm running into a problem trying to get DF to load.

It gives me this error when I try launching it

Code: [Select]
$ ./df
./df: ./libs/Dwarf_Fortress: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory

Any ideas?

Looks like your ELF interpreter is borked.
If you speak fluent Elvish or aren't planning to maintain peace with the Elves at all, you could switch over to untranslated.


Sorry for this useless post, but corny jokes are stronger than my willpower.

This post may be useless because you decided to go with the Windows version and WINE, but it looks like you're missing some needed 32-bit libraries.  This thread on the Fedora forums has a solution.

yeah, i tried that thinking that might be the cause. But it claims I have all the latest i686 libraries already :/
