Description Daniel Tartavel 2022-09-10 18:01:06 CEST 
Description of problem:
When launching, get this error:

Error: Couldn't load project data at path ".". Is the .pck file missing?
If you've renamed the executable, the associated .pck file should also be renamed to match the executable's name (without the extension).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.7.0

How reproducible:
launch it

Cheers

Valid for Cauldron, too.

I can't find a .pck file, btw

the bug is still valid
Comment 4 Daniel Tartavel 2022-11-03 13:20:47 CET 
bug still present in cauldron -> Mageia 9
Comment 5 Rémi Verschelde 2022-11-03 15:03:33 CET 
Indeed tanks-of-freedom and minilens are two Godot games we package that require Godot 2.x, and we now provide Godot 3.x, which is incompatible.

I can either drop those packages in Mageia 9, or re-add a godot2-runner package that just builds what's needed to run those games.

Status: NEW => ASSIGNED

Comment 6 Daniel Tartavel 2022-12-07 23:41:06 CET 
Hi Rémi,

if this is the only one game which need Godot 2.x, i think you can drop it,
else we need to provide godot2-runner.
Comment 7 Rémi Verschelde 2022-12-08 14:07:25 CET 
Yeah, I went ahead and obsoleted:
- tanks-of-freedom
- minilens

So this is solved in Mageia 9.

For Mageia 8, this is a WONTFIX (could introduce godot2-runner package to make them work, but I'm a bit concerned about potential security vulnerabilities which, while harmless for offline games, could become a sore point in our security track record).

Resolution: (none) => FIXED
Status: ASSIGNED => RESOLVED
