running fedora 36
i try running the start.sh but i got the error:
./Hacknet.bin.x86_64: error while loading shared libraries: libgconf-2.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I installed libgconf-2.so.4 but then tried launching the game again but it still wont launch, getting the same error
what is going on? how do i fix this?

update: it appears theres multiple dependencies missing but it doesnt tell me at all.

"but gog doesnt support fedora!"
it worked just fine before. i ended up doing a system reinstall and now it wont work.

update: i installed GConf2-3.2.6-34.fc36.x86_64 but now i get a different error (see attached screenshot)
this is a damn mess. if a game is missing dependencies, then freaking tell me.
now that i figured that out, it gives me another error thats impossible to make heads or tails of.

I had the same issue with missing libgconf-2.so.4.

I installed it and dependencies using Synaptic, tried to launch using terminal:
~/GOG Games/Hacknet$ ./start.sh
Running Hacknet

But when I launch using the menu shortcut, the game launches to the menu.

I will try and play, reporting if I have any errors.
For anyone else on Fedora, this fixed it for me.
sudo dnf install GConf2
Then, in the /game/ DIR, run the game:
TERM=xterm ./Hacknet
