Description Pavel Kreuzt 2013-07-23 12:55:23 CEST
It's supposed Smokin' Guns rpm gives only a launcher and it downloads and installs necessary data files in user's home the first time it is launched. The problem is it downloads and installs again every time the game is launched


Version-Release: smokinguns-1.0-4.mga3.noarch.rpm

How reproducible: Every time the game is launched.


Steps to Reproduce:

1. Install smokinguns rpm
2. Launch the game from console or menu entry (it will pop-up the autodownloader and download data files)
3. Quit the game
4. Launch the game again, it will try to download data files again despite they are already installed.

Reproducible:

Still present in Mageia 4.

I'm currently working on new packages that contain the game engine and data. They're actually ready but I still need to fix a bug in x86_64 that crashes the game.

Status: NEW => ASSIGNED

Hello,

I'm Téquila from Smokin'Guns team and main linux maintainer for SMokin'Guns. I was triggered to come here thanks to Juan Luis Baptiste.

I've few comment about this smokinguns package. Firstly, you should know SMokin'Guns 1.1 is released since summer 2012 and main site is http://www.smokin-guns.org since spring 2012 (smokin-guns.net is definitively dead as retired from the team without offering the domain).

Then about this bug, I saw the smokinguns.sh script expects ~/.smokinguns/smokinguns/zpak000.pk3 to not download again the package. This file is not mandatory, but ~/.smokinguns/smokinguns/sg_pak0.pk3 would be for Smokin'guns 1.0.

Regards,

Téquila

Don't worry, those are old packages, I haven't imported the new ones yet, I can't do it until this x86_64 issue is fixed. And the new ones don't use autodownloader to get the data files, they will be packaged and included in the distro repos too.

Mageia 3 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status 4 months ago.
http://blog.mageia.org/en/2014/11/26/lets-say-goodbye-to-mageia-3/ 

Mageia 3 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Mageia
please feel free to click on "Version" change it against that version of Mageia
and reopen this bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
