Re: Torcs Crashes after clicking on "New Race "

Hi

Hmm, very strange... I always wonder why there are differences regarding 
linking...

Does "torcs -l" report it as missing library, or is it not listed at all?

Did you run "configure" before you compiled the package, this should set 
up the LDFLAGS properly, e.g. here is what I get on my system:

Some snippets out of my config.log:
configure:6106: checking for alutLoadWAVFile in -lalut
configure:6131: g++ -o conftest -march=barcelona -O2 
-fno-strict-aliasing -Wall -fPIC -fno-strict-aliasing -O2 
-DUSE_RANDR_EXT -DGL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES -march=barcelona -O2 
-fno-strict-aliasing  -lopenal conftest.cpp -lalut  -lXrandr -lXrender 
-lXxf86vm -lXmu -lXi -lXt -lSM -lICE -lXext -lX11 -lm  >&5

ac_cv_lib_alut_alutLoadWAVFile=yes

LDFLAGS=' -lopenal -lalut -lvorbisfile'

Then the compiler (linking) commands emitted are like this:

g++ -shared -o libconfscreens.so controlconfig.o graphconfig.o 
mouseconfig.o driverconfig.o joystickconfig.o simuconfig.o soundconfig.o 
openglconfig.o -L/home/berni/torcs_src/torcs/torcs/export/lib  -lopenal 
-lalut -lvorbisfile -L/usr/lib  -lplibjs

So I would guess "configure" failed somehow.

Best regards

Bernhard
