Missing libags library

Starting this executable I get,

ion@localhost:~/DATA/TEMP/OVCC/OVCC 1.6.1> ./ovcc
./ovcc: error while loading shared libraries: libag_gui.so.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
ion@localhost:~/DATA/TEMP/OVCC/OVCC 1.6.1> 

After I zypper install libags6 the error repeats. Where can I find the correct file?

What software does this library come from? I hope the place where you got your binary from has some documentation. Does it list prerequisites?

The only prerequisites are for Ubuntu. The binary is a 6809 emulator, specifically for a Tandy Color Computer 3. I thought I would try running it and resolve whatever libraries it needs and hopefully they are available under openSUSE.

According the instructions at the OVCC github page, you need to compile the agar stuff yourself.
FreeBSD is the only distribution which provides agar.

So, the download location provides libraries with version 6 and binary linked against the newer library version 8. Either it should provide different binary or different libraries. This is really something you need to bring up with the project owner.

I think I’ll stay with VCC.exe running under wine. A little complicated, a little slow, but it works. Thanks for the advice.
