Thank you for pointing out this omission.
Both
 $ urpmq -l keeperrl | grep appconfig.txt
and
 $ urpmf appconfig.txt
return nothing, no such file known anywhere!

Assigning to akien as the relevant maintainer.

Could you be more explicit about why this file is necessary?

Nevermind, I now see that the currently packaged version throws an error on start due to this file being missing.

Please mention such things in bug reports, it may seem obviously but your (here, correct) conclusion that the file needs to be packaged needs to be backed by a reason.

Working on an update to alpha 29 that will also fix this packaging issue.

Status: NEW => ASSIGNED

Fixed in Cauldron with keeperrl-0.0.29-2.mga8.

Assigning to QA for mga7 update candidate.

Silvano, if you can test it from the Core Updates Testing repository (`urpmi --searchmedia testing keeperrl`), you can report here and help QA in the validation process (mention what architecture you tested on).
(Note: It might take an hour or two to reach your mirrors.)

Advisory:
=========

Updated keeperrl package fixes start failure

  KeeperRL alpha 27 as packaged in Mageia 7 was missing the `appconfig.txt` file,
  preventing starting the game.

  This update fixes this packaging issue, and further updates KeeperRL to alpha
  29, providing new features and bug fixes.
