Hi all,

Just wanted to let you know that the developers are aware of the issues with the Linux version and they have informed me that they will work to fix them ASAP :)
Quick update:

We've just received version 1.0.4 of the Linux version of Objects in Space.

As soon as it's done being tested, we'll update it ASAP.

petov: Yay. Can't wait, but have to.

I am currently fiddling with the font image file and trying out some altered characters for readability. I am not sure if an altered file would be allowed to be shared, though.
The updated Linux version is live now :)

hollunder: I recommend trying to add those missing libraries one by one, using your distribution's repository where possible or the ones from the libs foider otherwise.

scippie75: I think you misunderstand the error messages (which is understandable as they are not informative enough). I have those libraries installed in my system, they are just not the correct version. Therefor, the libraries provided by the developer should solve this, but they might still be using other libraries they did not provide which are using my libraries and are incompatible with theirs, probably giving these problems. I hope you understand my rambling :-)

Anyway... looking forward to the 1.0.4 update. I hope it fixes all known issues!
The updated Linux version is now live :)

bluej774: Here's hoping the devs are still working on it!
They should be as I contacted them again about the issues you guys are experiencing and linked them the threads about the Linux version from this very forum :)

floccipocci: Yeah I just realized you mentioned that your libraries are the older versions.

scippie75: I still don't know why though (that's besides this thread), because I keep my Mint always up to date. Upgrading to 19 is not an option at this moment, but I would think that 18.3 is also up to date with the libraries.
When I ran Mint for a while I noticed that some libraries wouldn't get updated to a newer version until the next release i.e. 18 going to 19.

That's just my observation, though :)
Hi guys,

A new version of Objects in Space has been published. Please take a look and see if it works now :)

scippie75: ~/GOG Games/Objects In Space $ ./start.sh
Running Objects In Space
./ois: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.25' not found (required by /home/dirk/GOG Games/Objects In Space/game/libs/libexpat.so.1)
./ois: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.25' not found (required by /home/dirk/GOG Games/Objects In Space/game/libs/libbsd.so.0)
And then back to the prompt.

Being a software developer and system administrator myself, I would normally blame my system as it seems to work for others, but the fact is that every other Linux Native game I have (on GOG and Steam) works perfectly fine on this system. These games go from simple stuff like Axes & Acres, Kingdom: New Lands to Euro Truck, Transport Fever, XCOM, XCOM 2...
What version of the libc6 library do you have on your system, if you don't mind my asking? From the looks of the error message you may be running an older version of the libc6 library while the game was compiled against a newer one...
