Trouble with zandronum on linux

[Purplebanana]

Hello

Normally I install zandronum and doomseeker using this guide: http://wiki.zandronum.com/Compiling_Zandronum_on_Linux

however when it came to compiling I would get this error:

Code: Select all

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:108 (message):
  Could NOT find OpenSSL, try to set the path to OpenSSL root folder in the
  system variable OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR (missing: OPENSSL_LIBRARIES
  OPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR)

See also "/home/adam/zandronum_build/zandronum/buildclient/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log".

So I tried installing it by downloading the archive from here: http://zandronum.com/download

but it had it's own problem. When I try to start a game with doomseeker with something like brutal19.pk3 with doom.wad I get this error:

Code: Select all

Zandronum v1.2.1 - SVN revision 140525-2108 - SDL version
Compiled on Jun  2 2014

M_LoadDefaults: Load system defaults.
sv_maxlives will be changed for next game.
cooperative will be changed for next game.
You cannot -file with the shareware version. Register!

and lasty when I install via

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install zandronum doomseeker-zandronum

the zandronum executable is nowhere to be found.

Code: Select all

sudo find / -name zandronum

and

Code: Select all

locate zandronum

returned no results.

Can anybody help me get it running correctly? Any help is greatly appreciated.

EDIT:

After solving the problem with the "you cannot -file" error and enjoying some DOOM I came across a new problem. Whilst playing the sound will all of a sudden cut out and every time I shoot a gun or pause the game the sound is replaced by an awful static-like noise. This never happened after following the manual installation. Please help!

EDIT:

I think I've realised why the manual installation wasn't working. First of all there was a broken dependency problem (libjpeg8 waspre In the very first box of code there's this command:

nasm tar libbz2-dev libgtk2.0-dev cmake mercurial libgl1-mesa-dev

This normally works fine but now (on my new linux installation) this happens:

Code: Select all

nasm: error: more than one input file specified
nasm: error: more than one input file specified
nasm: error: more than one input file specified
nasm: error: more than one input file specified
nasm: error: more than one input file specified
type `nasm -h' for help

I can help with at least one thing...:
You cannot -file with the shareware version. Register!

You cant use the shareware version of doom (or any IWAD). Here are some option you can do:
A. Get the full version (on steam or ect)
B. Use other game like hexen/strife/heretic...
C. Use freedoom : http://freedoom.github.io/

I didn't realise it was th IWAD that was shareware! It was late last night and I was confued thinking I had to register zandronum or doomseeker somewhere xD

Thansk a lot.

I'm still really interested as to what's causing the other problems.

bumping this, still can't compile zandronum with the code in the guide.

Please take a look at these steps (press stdio to see input and output). This is how my bot builds Zandronum nightlies:

EDIT: You also need to sudo apt-get install libssl-dev.
