ID 155986 - Nuke 9 has dependency on libSDL which prevents it launching if the library is not installed

Tested in Nuke 9.0v1 -> 9.0v5b17 on a Virtualbox of Kubuntu 14.04 on Windows 7. Nuke installs fine but cannot run. Nuke 8 works fine. I don't think this is Virtualbox specific as we have just had a new customer report on a standard Kubuntu.

Repro Steps

1. Install Nuke on Kubunto 14.04 and try to run it. I used Virtualbox :

With this version of Kubuntu :

Result :

lenny@lenny-VirtualBox:/usr/local/Nuke9.0v4$ Failed to load libstudio-9.0.4.so: libSDL-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Failed: command not found

I did an ldd on Nuke and got the following :

lenny@lenny-VirtualBox:/usr/local/Nuke9.0v4$ ldd Nuke9.0

I tried to install the latest libSDL-1.2.so.0 and it seems to be the latest :

lenny@lenny-VirtualBox:/usr/local/Nuke9.0v4$ sudo apt-get -f install libsdl1.2debian:i386

libsdl1.2debian:i386 is already the newest version.


I installed everything as sudo and also tried to run Nuke as sudo. I also tried the suggestions here :
