Hey guys. I bought Magical Diary during the Linux Celebration Sale, but it crashes right after the little splash screen. Here's what I get in the terminal when I launch the shell script:

File "/home/andrew/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Magical Diary/renpy/bootstrap.py", line 270, in bootstrap

Have you installed libxmu ?
I see you get this error.
ImportError: libXmu.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Yeah I noticed that, too. How do I install it?

Sswordfischer 2013-02-15 github

either through Ubuntu Software Center, or via a terminal sudo apt-get install libxmu should do it (I'm not on Ubuntu, so not quite sure)

?ghost 2013-02-15 github

Hmmm it couldn't locate a package called libxmu, and installing the top result in the USC didn't do much either.

MMajlo34 2013-02-15 github

sudo apt-get install libxmu6

You can use http://packages.ubuntu.com if you need any package for any release

Strangely enough, I already have that package installed. :S

Please report this issue to the game's developer so they can work to fix it.
