Hi,
I'm having problem installing / starting wasteland 2 on a 64-bit ubuntu (xubuntu 14.04.1 LTS).
It's the kickstarter edition (yes, it's taken me a while to getting around to trying the game...).

Here's where I am:
- The system is running a recent installation of xubuntu 14.04.1 (64-bit)
- I've downloaded WL2 using lgogdownloader.. Note: I could only find/get a .tar.gz-file, I didn't see any .deb-archive.
- As per the requisities, I've installed some 32-bit packages using:
sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libasound2:i386 libasound2-data:i386 libasound2-plugins:i386
- Unpacked the archive

However, when trying to start from the resulting folder (using ./start.sh), I get the following error message:
Running Wasteland 2
./WL2: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Checking, I see I only have 64-bit version of that library.

Are the instructions (required packages) incomplete, and I need a 32-bit version of that library as well?
If so, through which package should I install it?

Update:
Googled and gave the following a try:
sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-glx:i386

It seems to have done the trick, now I seem to be able to start it. :-)

Regards,
Christian

PS.
The following might help anyone that gets this error message instead:
./start.sh
Running Wasteland 2
support/gog_com.shlib: line 211: ./WL2: No such file or directory

I think you get this error when libc6:i368 etc are not installed.

PPS: I also found the following forum post:
seems_wasteland_2_has_issues_with_64bit_ubuntu

That person was advised to file a support ticket, but for some reason I was unable to file a support ticket :-(
It also seems the solution might be to have a 32-bit version of libGL.so, which I already consider above.

You need the package "libgl1-mesa-glx:i386" or one of its alternatives depending on the video driver you use:
_fglrx (AMD/ATI non-free driver): libgl1-fglrx-glx:i386
_nvidia (nVIDIA non-free driver): libgl1-nvidia-glx:i386

PS: packages names from Debian Wheezy, they might be slightly different on Ubuntu.

PPS: Here you can find a script building a .deb package from the .tar.gz archive (no more dependencies issues that way):

It hasn’t been yet tested on Ubuntu, only on Debian, but it may work for you. Should you try it, please report your results in the dedicated topic ;)
