DT:DF2014 just merged my qt4-compat branch, so DT should be compilable now on machines that don't have qt5.

DT:DF2014 just merged my qt4-compat branch, so DT should be compilable now on machines that don't have qt5.

I was reading the git log of dt yesterday so i stumbled over the qt4 patches. i tried to compile with qt4 and it works. i sent an email to splintermind and asked to add this info to the readme.

thanks a lot for your effort, i am using slackware, which ships qt4 only, so i had to go through a qt5 compile, which takes ages. now i can remove qt5 from my 32 bit slackware box. excellent! many, many thanks.

n/p : )  yeah, I was in the same boat.

@Beau: I noticed that LNP/graphics/[16x16] Mayday v0.40.08/data/init/d_init.txt is missing the line:

[STRICT_POPULATION_CAP:220]

which causes forts to not ever get any migrants when using that graphics set

Edit: I see LNP 0.40.09 has it fixed.  Nevermind!

[King Mir]

40.09 does change d_init.txt again, and it's still probably better to update it instead of relying on the fact that the defaults are supposed to be correct now.

[zomborger]

does the error message change?  what is the output when you try to run the DwarfTherapist binary directly?  e.g.:

Code: [Select]

cd LNP/utilities/dwarf_therapist
./DwarfTherapist


Not really sure how to do that but when typed that into terminal, it just spit back that "no such file or directory." This is with the latest release 40.09r0 LNP

I am using Ubuntu 14.04 for the other person asking.

[Dwimenor]

You need to change your working directory to place where you downloaded and unpacked LNP.

[Lasander]

I've always avoided LNP but wow it's actually kindof neat.  Remove aquifers with one click?  Nice! 

I do have an issue though.  I can't get Dwarf Therapist to connect to DF.  I can get it to connect if I run it as root but I hate doing that and I can't seem to get ptrace to work.

Oh, and does anyone have issues trying to get DT to resize?  Its super wide and I can only control how vertical it is.

[Mimaku]

Hello Lasander,

Beuatato has implemented Dwimenor's improved start-up-script a while ago. It asks once for sudo to set up the ptrace-scope for DT in a seperate shell-window...so with the 0.40.09r0 release of the LLNP it should work out of the box...

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh
LNP_DIR=$(dirname "$0")
cd "${LNP_DIR}"

#Check whether Dwarf Therapist can read from DF memory:
dt_capabilities=$(getcap LNP/utilities/dwarf_therapist/DwarfTherapist |cut -f2 -d"=")
dt_capabilities=${dt_capabilities:=0}
if [ ${dt_capabilities} != "cap_sys_ptrace+eip" ]; then
msg="Enable Dwarf Therapist to read from Dwarf Fortress memory"
xterm -e "echo $msg;sudo setcap cap_sys_ptrace=eip LNP/utilities/dwarf_therapist/DwarfTherapist"
fi

#run Lazy Newb Pack
java -jar lazy-newbpack-gui-0.5.3-SNAPSHOT.jar


If you can't use it this way perhaps it's a issue due to your distro? What distro are you using then?

And in DT i never have tried to change the window-size, since i use it always in fullscreen...but can confirm, that resizing goes only to the the menu-buttons and no further.

I was encourage to post this here, but my original post was here: http://www.reddit.com/r/dwarffortress/comments/2edclq/gentoo_linux_fix_script_for_lnp/

In short, I've had issues getting the Lazy Newb Pack packages to work on my Gentoo system. Nothing major: a path is wrong in a few of scripts, libpng doesn't seem to work so I need to convert all the art to bmp and the LD_PRELOAD workaround doesn't work for me. I know its not the most popular distro around, but I figured a few other linux people might be interested in my script to fix things:

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/bash

for D in `find . -maxdepth 1 -type d -not -name "."`
do
    if [[ "$D" != ./LNP-linux-v* ]]
    then
        echo "Cannot find LNP-linux directory."
        echo "Please ensure this script is in the same directory that you extracted the pack to."
        exit
    fi

    echo "Converting all png to bmp"
    for E in `find $D/LNP/graphics -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -type d -not -name "."`
    do
        mogrify -format bmp $E/data/art/\*.png 2> /dev/null
        sed -i\.bak -e 's/\.png/\.bmp/g' $E/data/init/init.txt
    done

    echo
    echo "Fixing init.txt"
    sed -i\.bak -e 's/\.png/\.bmp/g' $D/df_linux/data/init/init.txt

    echo
    echo "Fixing the df launcher script"
    sed -i\.bak -e 's/LD_PRELOAD=\/usr\/lib32\/libz.so/LD_PRELOAD=\/lib32\/libz.so.1/g' $D/df_linux/df
    sed -i -e 's/LD_PRELOAD=\/usr\/lib\/libz.so/LD_PRELOAD=\/lib\/libz.so.1/g' $D/df_linux/df
    sed -i -e 's/ldconfig -p/\/sbin\/ldconfig -p/g' $D/df_linux/df
done
BeauBouchard has also kindly added the script to their github: https://github.com/BeauBouchard/DF-Lazy-Newb-Pack/blob/master/gentoopatch.bash
Let me know if it has any issues, but on my system I can download the LNP.tar.gz file, extract it, run the above script and play so that's a lot nicer than having to do the above by hand.

[myk]

I'm also on gentoo, actually.  I solved the png issue by just recompiling libgraphics.so (via this repo ), putting the output libgraphics.so in df_linux/libs, and removing all other lib* files in there.

edit: I should also note that I have a slight patch against that repo to get it to work with how gentoo installs ncurses:

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 and get the same error message:

I have to use "sudo" to even get that message.

Previously i think that andrew18 was using DF-unfuck in his previous LNP installation scripts which got it to work out of box in gentoo. In a perfect world we could have LNP install it on first run.

Updated Linux Lazy Newb Pack to dwarf fortress V0.40.10

updated Dwarf therapist to v25, also compiled with qt4 so should work better with other distros.

I get the same error:

./DwarfTherapist: 1: ./DwarfTherapist: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
Still using Ubuntu 12.04.

[myk]

wait, maybe I misunderstood earlier: was the "(" unexpected error from when you run startlnp or from when you run ./DwarfTherapist directly?  If it's from running ./DwarfTherapist, what is the mode of the file and what does 'file DwarfTherapist' output?

@Beautato: Thanks for the new LNP release!
