installing hackety hack

Asked by bwana about 1 year ago

Real noob here. downloaded hackety hack to a new linux ubuntu (12.04) system. The file hackety-hack-1.0.1.run is downloaded. I navigate to the downloads directory in terminal. Then I cannot get it to install. What do I type?

Please be gentle.

tnx.

    ok, so i figured out i had to make the file executable. I did this: chmod u+x hacketyhack-1.0.1.run

    then this: ./hacketyhack-1.0.1.run

    and got this: Verifying archive integrity... All good. Uncompressing Hackety Hack............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... /tmp/selfgz7204/hacketyhack-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libjpeg.so.62: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

    so then i installed libjpeg version 6.2

    and ran this again: ./hacketyhack-1.0.1.run

    And presto! I got a new window with hackety hack in it!

    I actually worked around it by downloading shoes program, downloading hackety source, and using shoes to open hackety :D

    I solved this by installing the 32biit version of libjpeg62

    sudo apt-get install libjpeg62:i386
