IHP: ALE Clone (WarCraft II clone)



...on the downside, it's an outdated version (1.14 / 990122). Even
SuSE's version is more up to date, apparently. For shame. I'll see
about remedying this over the next few days, but in the meantime, here's
the goss:

Package: ale-clone
Architecture: any
Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}
Recommends: ale-clone-data
Description: Realtime, fantasy strategy game for Unix and X
 ALE Clone is a clone of the realtime fantasy stratgey game, WarCraft II.
 .
 Note that this is the latest stable release of ALE Clone, and as such is
 really quite out of date. It's somewhat buggy, but it's moderately playable
 nevertheless.

Package: ale-clone-installer
Architecture: any
Provides: ale-clone-data
Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}
Recommends: ale-clone
Description: WarCraft II data installer for ALE Clone
 Since ALE Clone doesn't provide graphics, sounds and documentation,
 you need the original game so ALE Clone can extract the necessary
 files. (With over 1 million sold copies this shouldn't be a big
 problem)
 .
 This package will extract the necessary data from a DOS installation
 of WarCraft II, or from a WarCraft II or WarCraft II Expansion Set
 CD.

It's released under the Artistic license. It's in contrib/ since you
need to run the -installer over a WarCraft II CD to get it to work.

Cheers,
aj
