It won't start the game because of some libphysfs.so.1 library missing

Why does it say that linux is a platform? Please change so that it says only "Platform: Windows" or do you really mean you are supporting linux?

Uhm, why would FLARE only work in Ubuntu 12.10 and not in Ubuntu 12.04? Desurium has downloaded your game but using the launcher it won't run. If I run the game manually by double-clicking the executable on /home/johndoe/.desura/games/Flare/flare then the game starts up just fine.

I don't think it's a problem with Desurium because Tremulous launches just fine.

An extra little update. I successfully compiled v017_1 and am now playing it(still on 12.04). I wish it worked here on Desurium.

Me too, I'm on 12.04. I've not tried 12.10 yet. Maybe I will try it but I registered here on Desurium to play flare and after the 100megabyte(FLARE) download it didn't start. Now I'm getting it as a simple 'linux download'. Will be fun...though I had hoped it would be on Desurium. Btw thx to makson96 I got desurium through an Ubuntu ppa.
