After installing both the linux and the data files in
the same directory, running ./soccar fails:

It seems wrong that the library is looked for in
/usr/local/lib/, which is not where the program is. The
script indeed places ./lib in LD_LIBRARY_PATH, so using
no path should make it work.

After manually fixing this (ln -s /tmp/soccar-0.5.2/lib
/usr/local/lib/OGRE), I still get an error:
blanche /tmp/soccar-0.5.2 ./soccar

    Thanks for reporting the bug.

    The last exception (in ConfigFile::load) is OK, it's should be there only
    at first time. The problem here is that the OGRE can't open it's
    configuration dialog if it can't find the ogre.cfg file because of the
    missing ogre-config.glade file.

    For a quick workaround, try creating an ogre.cfg file with these three
    lines:

    Render System OpenGL Rendering Subsystem
    Full Screen No
    Video Mode 640 x 480

    This way you can bypass the configuration dialog.

    Soccar is looking for the libraries in /usr/local/ because of a bug: you
    can fix this by modifying plugins.cfg accordingly.

    Due to these two problems the only clean way to run soccar at the
    moment is to have Ogre 0.11 installed in /usr/local, but you can get it
    working by editing/fixing the ogre.cfg and plugins.cfg files.

    I created the ogre.cfg in the current directory, and
    modified plugins.cfg with
    PluginFolder=./lib

    After that I get:

    Ogre is 0.10 and not 0.11 as you mentioned, but this is the
    version that was distributed with soccar, so I suppose it
    should work.
