On Fedora since 3.12.0 launcher is not starting

[flashkiller999]

Hello,

I until today I used the launcher version 3.11.0 without issue and attempted to download the newest version 3.13.0.
If trying to launch it nothing happens, starting from console reveals the following error:

./anime-game-launcher: error while loading shared libraries: libbz2.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I also checked other newer versions, but all versions after 3.11.0 seem to be affected, namely: 3.12.0, 3.12.1, 3.13.0

Workaround:
Upon checking /usr/lib64 I only found the following libbz2's:

$ ls -la libbz*
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root    11 Jul 17 02:00 libbz2.so -> libbz2.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root    15 Jul 17 02:00 libbz2.so.1 -> libbz2.so.1.0.8
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 80688 Jul 17 02:00 libbz2.so.1.0.8

I was able to circumvent the issue by creating a symlink in lib64 (libbz2.so.1.0 -> libbz2.so.1), I would however prefer a fix for the launcher, so others with the same problem, do not have to interfere with the lib64 folder, as non Linux-savvy users might cause problems for themselves down the road with this.

OS: Fedora KDE 41 (patched per 2024-11-24)

Thanks in advance
