Trouble with spring and springlobby

I recently installed spring and springlobby. I installed spring by use of their Linux installer (here http://spring.clan-sy.com/wiki/Other_distros_install).  I cant run spring ether from the command line or from the springlobby loader. I keep getting errors saying that it cant load unitsync.so. the comand line read out is here

anyone know about these problems? I have googled the problem and got a few posts on the Ubuntu forums but none of the fixes they suggested worked, so i ask here.

Re: Trouble with spring and springlobby

the PKGBUILD doesn't work for me... I'll try the official installer

edit: the official installer doesn't work for me.. it says "A instalação do menu no desktop falhou" that roughly translates to "The desktop menu installation has failed" ... ???

Re: Trouble with spring and springlobby

OK i managed to fix Spring and SpringLobby although the fix has sort of a dirty hack feel to it.  I went into my /usr/lib folder and just copied and renamed
"libGLEW.so" to "libGLEW.so.1.4"
"libboost_regex-mt.so" to "libboost_regex-gcc42-mt-1_34_1.so.1.34.1"
"libboost_thread-mt.so" to "libboost_thread-gcc42-mt-1_34_1.so.1.34.1"
i guess a beater way would be to correct the offending code and recompile but this way works for now.
