Xconq has a lot of bugs



Hello,

while browsing through the list of RC bugs i stumbled over xconq.
This game seems to be in a terrible state.  There were long standing
bugs in the BTS.  Some of them have patches but nobody seems to
care about the package.  The packaging stuff is outdated
(Standards-Version: 2.4.1) the Debian version is years behind
upstream.

So what to do:

I suggest to completely repack the thing from scratch with the
latest upstream version from http://sources.redhat.com/xconq/
(version 7.4.1).

Perhaps  Pete Ryland  has interest to do that (according to his
patch from 17 Jan 2002 he seems to have interest).  I would care
about an NMU of Pete. If not I would give it a try over the weekend
if noone insists.

Kind regards

        Andreas.
