Description Jeremy Andrews 2011-09-21 12:11:59 CEST
This may be a somewhat involved request, because of the libraries involved. I attempted to use urpmi --buildrequires on the Mandriva SRPM, but it seems to fail because the package requires the older 1.2 version of gtk+-devel, which in turn requires the 1.2 version glib-devel. Since these packages don't seem to exist in Mageia (the oldest version available is GTK+ 2.0), there's no easy way to recompile the source from SRPMs.

So, if anyone has some free time on their hands, and is interested in seeing more Linux games on Mageia... would you please take a look at this?

I can get the binary RPMs from another distribution working on my system using very sophisticated workarounds right now, but I'm asking for this package because I know that what I'm doing is actually a very bad idea. Also, chances are that the average user couldn't do it at all, and would have to do without this game.

version 0.15-0.rc1.1.mga2 is in cauldron, so it'll be in Mga2 stable.

Closing as fixed, because the request was "Consider including FreedroidRPG in the next version of Mageia? "
