Title: Supertuxkart 0.8.1-2 dependencies not satisfied in LL3.0 - how to fix?
Post by: m654321 on November 02, 2016, 10:28:38 AM
Setup (3) in sig below is too old (outdated graphics card) to run Supertuxkart version 0.9 - this version is found in the LL3.0 repo.  Therefore, the only way to get Supertuxkart working in LL3.0, is to run an earlier version.  Previously, I've run Supertuxkart 0.8.1-2 successfully on setup3, using LL2.8, however it won't install on LL3.0, due to dependency issues.

To install version 0.8.1-2, I have the following packages:
(1) supertuxkart_0.8.1-2_amd64.deb
(2) supertuxkart-data_0.8.1-2_all.deb

I used gdebi to install both packages.
First, I installed package(2) - that went smoothly. When I attempted to install package(1), the installation got stuck, gdebi giving the following alert:
Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libenet2a (>=1.3.7+ds)

I'd appreciate your help on how to fix this.  I did sudo apt-get install libenet2a in terminal but that didn't work. It would be a shame if I had to revert to LL2.8 in order to get supertuxkart to work...

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Regards
Mike

Solved: for anyone interested go to the following link to download the dependency 'libenet2a' to make Supertuxkart 0.8.1-2 work in the LL3 series:
https://pkgs.org/ubuntu-14.04/ubuntu-universe-amd64/libenet2a_1.3.11+ds-1_amd64.deb.html (https://pkgs.org/ubuntu-14.04/ubuntu-universe-amd64/libenet2a_1.3.11+ds-1_amd64.deb.html)

At this webpage, scroll down to the subheading Download & click on the icon which is shown next to the text "Download libenet2a_1.3.11+ds-1_amd64.deb for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS from the Ubuntu Universe repository" and then open the downloaded package with gdebi.

Useful for those of us running LL3 series, who are fans of Supertuxkart, but who have PCs with video cards that are too old to run the Supertuxkart version 0.9, which is currently available in the LL3.0 series repository and replaces version 0.8.
