I am trying to run Don’t Starve game but I’m getting this error:

error while loading shared libraries: libcurl-gnutls.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

After some searching I found the ldd command and run it:

I’m running Leap 42.2 and Gnome DE.

I am very new to linux so if you need any more info please tell.

Thanks in advance.

Bump please.

Hi
No package exists (probably a tls security issue), maybe try a symlink to libcurl (a hack!), switch to root user and try;


ln -s /usr/lib64/libcurl.so.4 /usr/lib64/libcurl-gnutls.so.4

Else ask the packager(s) of the game to include it… Not sure, but maybe even drop the requirement…?

Thank you. I will try it once I get home.

I installed it on a fresh Ubuntu installation and it runs without any issue. So I don’t think it’s a game problem.

Thank you.

Hi
Well for anything other than Debian based distro, which is the only one using that package… so from my perspective it’s erring to a upstream/developer bug :wink: If they used openssl instead it wouldn’t be an issue…

But isn’t possible to to install it or pick it somewhere and correct this problem?

Hi
Rebuild curl and add gnutls support… now how that would affect other
programs and applications…not sure.

on openSUSE openssl support is conditional and excluded, so I guess it
could be done… Maybe raiuse a bug report and see if the Maintainers
will take it on…

Thank you for all the help.

Whatever package you are using for that game, it has most likely not been built for openSUSE as its libcurl has been linked against openssl and not gnutls, so there is no package including that file for openSUSE.

Nada.

Woops

Somehow I must have missed all the answers already being given before writing my post (maybe too many tabs open in my browser window), could some admin just delete my postings in this thread as they are obsolete and maybe confusing to other readers?
