Description Steve Havelka 2015-09-04 18:09:48 CEST

When I install the game, Beneath a Steel Sky, it also installs Flight of the Amazon Queen and Lure of the Temptress (in several languages??).

Can't these games be separated out?

Indeed, it's due to their common ScummVM interpreter which recommends all those games.

# LC_ALL=C urpmi --test beneath-a-steel-sky

Summary: Too many dependencies for RPM? => Should ScummVM recommend the installation of all its supported games?

Comment 2 José Jorge 2015-09-04 19:21:04 CEST

It was a way to make easier to use scummvm, but I agree that as rpmdrake does not give a way to ignore recommends, I remove this recommends from MGA6.

Still, as it is easy to remove this games after they were installed, I think this does not deserve the work of an update for MGA5, do you agree?
