Dopewars won't run

I tried the following commands with the following results:

156% dopewars

Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library
Bus error

157% dopewars -t
Bus error

158% dopewars -w GTK+

Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library

Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

I have never played, so I'm sure I am missing something obvious. Any idea what?

I too am haing this problem. . .does something else need to be installed besides libdl?
