Seg faults with ODE on Ubuntu

I'm currently attempting to use the Derelict ODE bindings on my Linux box, and whenever I call the DerelictODE.load() function, my program seg faults. It compiles just fine, and there are no exceptions thrown, just a straight up seg fault.

I've compiled and installed the latest release of ODE from source, as well as tried using the Debian package, but get the same result both ways. Any ideas on what the hang-up could be?

What does your command line look like when compiling your app?

I'm using DSSS, so my command line doesn't really look like much. Would the rebuild command that DSSS generates help?

#edit# I'm also loading SDL, SDLImage, GL, and GLU, and none of those cause any issues #/edit#

I figured it out. Even though I manually compiled the ODE libraries, the Ubuntu provided libraries were higher up in the link order and so they were being grabbed. I removed the Ubuntu provided libraries completely and now the project links correctly.

You do link, but dynamically rather than statically. The .so files for the Ubuntu provided libraries were higher up on the loading chain, so they were linked into my program at runtime rather than the self-compiled ones.
