2.5 Won't run on Ubunty Trusty 64-bit, workarround

From command-line, since GUI failed, the game would not run and gave no feedback ()was Like I just pressedd ENTER on the command-line
All dependancies seemd to be installed
I installed many games, just incase, so unknown dependancies might be met
result:
./zlaunch-l: No such file or directory
OR running using sh
zlaunch-l: 1:zlaunch-l: Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
I installed many games, again. Finnally this resulted in a very usefull error. libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0 was missing (according to zlaunch, it actually was not missing). Fixed it:

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib32/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0

Now it runs fine. Hope this helps.

Allegro 4 depends on a library that's been removed from the repository. I need to hurry up. :p
