Sorry for the delay, this week was a bit busy, so I wasn't able to test the build ouput until just now. New packages uploaded. I actually hoped to have it uploaded 12 hours ago (ie. at the other end of the workday for me) but the overnight build failed so I had to fix and restart it. > Paul, do you need any help on those packages? I don't _need_ help with the packaging, although I'll take any help offered, but certainly it'd be good to get builds for platforms other than PowerPC, or etch backport builds, as Reiner has been so kind as to do so far. I _could_ produce i386 builds as well as PowerPC, but that machine's somewhat lower spec'd (about 1/2) compared to my laptop, and it'll be quicker for people who can run the game to build it themselves from my source package. I am open to suggestions as to how best to handle the rather frequent updates to the client. I really need to track the SL developer blog more closely, so I'm ready to package a new release, but it doesn't always come at a time convienient for me. I do try to upload the source as soon as I know the dpatches apply, but situations like today happen where a change in the upstream build system cause the build the fail three hours in, and I'm soundly asleep and unable to tell anyone that this happened. Maybe team-based packaging's a good idea? If there's anyone who's keen to help out, with an eye to being part of a team once we get this stuff into Debian-proper, post here. Someone able to turn around a package build in less than three hours (for whichever arch) would prolly come in handy. ^_^ I'd also be interested in workflow suggestions, with the proviso that I've recently become enamoured of git. ^_^ -- Paul "TBBle" Hampson, Paul.Hampson@Pobox.com Shorter .sig for a more eco-friendly paperless office.
