I can install it fine with apt-get install libguichan-0.8.1-1
It's in extras-devel, not in extras

package is not in user/ section (because it's a library), so it's not directly installable with application manager

Thanks, I was not completing the version number when I tried to install it wil apt-get

So with that lib and I (thanks to your info) made and installed libSDL_ttf and it is happy with that. But now with the latest (and I think last) lib it needs, I am havng a problem..

' error while loading shared libraries: libphysfs-1.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory'

10 seconds earlier I had done this on the N810:

Nokia-N810-43-7:/media/mmc1# dpkg -i libphysfs-1.0-0_1.0.0-5_armel.deb
Selecting previously deselected package libphysfs-1.0-0.
(Reading database ... 16856 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking libphysfs-1.0-0 (from libphysfs-1.0-0_1.0.0-5_armel.deb) ...
Setting up libphysfs-1.0-0 (1.0.0-5) ...

I have this version installed on the dev machine in scratchbox and I reconfigured and recompiled the game. still it complains this lib isn't there.

The only thing I see in the error is that it is looking for libphysfs-1.0.so.0 and I dont know what the .so. means. I have installed libphysfs-1.0-0 that should meet the dep, but I have something wrong.

When it needed libsdl_ttf it was also looking for .so.0 of sdl_ttf and I installed libsdl-ttf2.0-0 and it was happy and moved on... So I am not sure what the problem is..

Help, anyone....???..

p.s. when my request to upload is approved I will upload these libs to extras-devel as well....

all of those libraries are already in extras so no need to upload them.

Otherwise can't really say what's wrong without trying it myself

Well, I gave up on building my own libs (really just wanted to see how to do it..) and just installed them from Extras-Dev and it works. So There was certainly something wrong with my package of libphysfs. when I get done with this port I will go back and try to figure out why is all went wrong. Thanks again for all your help..
