Not sure what i'm doing wrong but the workaround on Linux I've been using (see below) to fix the libglut.so.3 issue no longer works.

svincent@svux2:~/Foldit$ rm libglut.so.3
svincent@svux2:~/Foldit$ ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libglut.so libglut.so.3

Any suggestions?

@spvincent What's the error message you're getting currently?

You may need to change directory you're linking in. Try doing the symlink in the cmp-binary-*/ directory.

The other thing to do would be to use the ldd command on the game_library.so (e.g. ldd cmp-binary-6a1005be7034e6f6dc7724cf25765848/game_library.so) to see what libraries your system is looking for, and where they're finding them. On my system, I can see that when I put the symlink in the main Foldit directory it doesn't pick it up, but it will pick it up if I put it in the cmp-binary directory.

Creating the symbolic link in the cmp-binary* directory worked: tx.
