Hi All,
I don't know what to do or even where to start. I am running 64 Mepis 11. I manually d/l and built c-ares-1.9.1 and curl-7.27.0. Then built BZ 2.4.2 without issue. I did use checkinstall to install it. Now I can connect to servers and move inside a game, but the moment I click the mouse it segfaults. I changed the fire to something else and it segfaults. I just started using Mepis. In the past on Debian or AptoSid this worked flawlessly. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Doesn't Mepis have development packages for c-ares, curl, etc? Did you build with SDL support?

Re: Built 2.4.2 but segfaults when I shoot
Yes it has libraries, but I installed curl and ares and they were not recognized in the configure script. And I added just about everything SDL under the sun to get it to show up in the configure.
Re: Built 2.4.2 but segfaults when I shoot
Did you read the README.Linux file we include with the source? Since Mepis is based on Debian, you should have tried installing the Debian packages we list. However, you now potentially have a "messy" environment since you manually installed some libraries.

Re: Built 2.4.2 but segfaults when I shoot
Tis is what it reported before I did make. I can remove curl and ares, but when i install the existing packages, it will mean that Bzflag will use its own libraries?

You are not building with SDL, it should say.
BZFlag client .....: yes (with SDL)

Re: Built 2.4.2 but segfaults when I shoot
You are a genius, or at least very experienced
Thanks so much for noticing that. I should have posted that to begin with. Everything is working smooth now!
