erm ... that talks about preloading *libmumble* to run a *3rd party game* not about needing to preload the *system libGL* just to be able to run *mumble itself* ...

No, what's going on is that it's apparently failed to link to a library that it requires. > So I thank you for pointing this out because it's interesting, but I'm not > sure if it's actually a bug. ;-) Let me know what you think. I'm pretty sure that everybody else is 100% certain that this is a bug. If there is any open question there at all it is whether the bug is RC, which for "application fails to start at all due to missing library dep" I wouldn't have thought would be very controversial either ... But this seems to be new(ly reported) for the upload you prepared, and it's still not clear yet why it is new and who it effects. So yes, you will need to investigate that further. It's most certainly not "expected behaviour" for a Debian package. Ron -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
