loki updaters under 9.1

[Guest itti]

i just noticed that updating games via the loki_upate doesn't work in 9.1... a quick google search showed that this is because of the new glibc.

 

running updatexyz.run always gives:

./update.sh: line 60:  8699 Segmentation fault      loki_patch --verify patch.dat

The program returned an error code (1)

 

any suggestions? i need to update tribes2

Are the libraries incompatible???

 

If not you can always install the older ones alongside.

 

You can also try creating a symbolic link to the newer library with the older library's name...

Download the latest patch, not all of them, then run it with the following option;

 

run sh ./tribes2.run --keep

 

cancel the update

cd to tribes2-patchdir/

vi update.sh

delete or comment out this, usually around line 60+

 

Code:

 

# Verify that the loki_patch version is okay

#if loki_patch --verify patch.dat; then

# :

#else

# exit 1

#fi

 

run ./update.sh

 

Most of my games updated and patched properly, but Tribes2 and UT2003 were not one of them. I had to do the above.
