Description Nathan Wolf 2021-08-10 22:13:38 UTC

As of Tumbleweed snapshot 20210807, VICE Versatile Commodore Emulator does not launch. The output in terminal is this:

xvic: symbol lookup error: xvic: undefined symbol: __glewXSwapIntervalSGI

No other output.

I am not sure how else to interrogate the application to determine the problem.

Hi, would you please provide the related rpm package information please? Thanks.

Comment 3 Chenzi Cao 2021-08-20 10:31:24 UTC

Thanks for providing the info, clear the needinfo request then.

@Wolfgang, would you please take a look at this issue? I'm not sure whether it is correct to assign it to you, please feel free to reassign whenever necessary, thanks.

It still works fine here on Leap 15.3.

The provided error message would suggest that it would need a rebuild against the latest libraries in Tumbleweed (libGLEW in particular?), unfortunately it currently fails to build as I just noticed when I looked at the package in Emulators.

I.e. the build failure for Tumbleweed needs to be fixed, then it should hopefully work again.

I'll have a look, but maybe you could do that too?

Oops, I wanted to address the actual package maintainer (karol_slawinski@wp.pl), but I cannot add him here because bugzilla tells me he is not known.

Comment 6 Wolfgang Bauer 2021-08-25 06:33:38 UTC

It's actually a problem with glew itself, this will fix it:

Comment 7 Wolfgang Bauer 2021-08-27 13:01:14 UTC

The fixed libGLEW is in the Tumbleweed repos meanwhile, so vice should work again (after you update your system).
