DF itself is compiled as 32-bit. libgraphics is, well, a library.

It would probably be possible to compile DF in 64-bit mode, with only minor issues. It worked for BC. However, Toady does not have a 64-bit machine.

He could still compile it for 64bit and let us test the binary.  :)
Probably more bother than it's worth though.

I could, but you'd still need a 64bit machine to run it, obviously.  At which point you could compile it yourself anyway. :)

Anyway, where would I start to compile?  If I'm not mistaken there's only 14848 lines of source code in this release, and I daresay the entire game is a bit bigger than that...

Andir, thank you for the response with a magic package name... but I already have ia32-libs installed.  Should I be symlinking to a different .so in order to use it, or something like that?

Baughn: yeah, that's what I meant by complex/sinister.  But is there any reason that I shouldn't take a crack at compiling it as 64 bit?  Or is there wicked pointer math that would immediately obstruct this?

I have a fail to start.  Message:

./dwarfort.exe: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL_image-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

System:

Kubuntu (hardy heron) Linux  2.6.24-24-generic x86_64
df_28_181_40d14_linux.tar.bz2 + df-40d14-head.tar.bz2

Attempted fix:
1. Update and install all the libSDL stuff I my package manager could get its grubby little hands on.
2. In the [df]/libs/ dir, symlink to  /usr/lib/libSDL_image-1.2.so.0.
3. Cry, because I got a new error message:

./dwarfort.exe: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL_image-1.2.so.0: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

So, I'm guessing somewhere where the library loading is done, you're doing so much sanity checking that "sanity" is restricted to 32bit? :)  (Or maybe there's a deeper and more complex/sinister reason that 32 bit libraries are expected?  I hope not...)
