Bug Description

I'm trying to get mumble-overlay to work with Guild Wars 2 in wine, but it fails, producing this error on the console:

ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/mumble/libmumble.so.1' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.

Since I am on an amd64 build of ubuntu (saucy) and the game (Guild Wars 2) is a 32-bit windows binary, I tried it again with mumble:i386 installed instead of the amd64 mumble package, but got the same error.

ld doesn't explain why the library cannot be preloaded, so I don't know what to do next.

Done.

Logan, what makes you think this is fixed in 1.2.5? All of the references to 1.2.5 on the wiki page you linked seem to be referencing the Windows version of mumble.

It doesn't explicitly say Windows, and your game is running under a Windows emulation layer. Guild Wars 2 is marked as incompatible until 1.2.5, so it probably won't work on Linux anyway if it's incompatible on Windows.

Same problem in Civilization IV.

It explicitly says Windows on every line mentioning 1.2.5 in the "Overlay availability by API, OS and CPU-architecture" table. It also implies Windows everywhere it mentions DirectX, since there is no DirectX entry in the tables that mention linux; only OpenGL entries exist there. This makes sense, of course, since mumble-overlay works via OpenGL on linux.

In any case, I don't see any explanation of the LD_PRELOAD "cannot be preloaded" error, nor any indication that it will be fixed in 1.2.5.

The bug is not limited to Guild Wars 2. I have tested it with several other 32-bit games running on wine, all with the same results.
