Love 11.0 problem

Post by johnno56 »

I am running with Linux Mint 18.1 (64 bit) and was using love2d 10.2

Decided to upgrade to love2d 11.0 (via repository) and it failed to execute.

Opened a command box to execute love manually and was presented with the following message:
"love: error while loading shared libraries: liblove-11.0.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

Any suggestion?

Thank you.

It looks like your LOVE installation is botched, because one of essential build artifacts is missing/misplaced. You can always build from source code though.

That message means it can't find the liblove-11.0.so library that contains the actual framework. You can try: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./love

(On a side note, that's why I like to compile it as static - everything is in one single executable and I don't need to install anything or define paths)
