Oh, never mind---given the importance of the changes, I doubt anyone has
noticed. Thanks for the upload!

Indeed, this may be something to consider...

Thank you very much for the offer. I am a bit uncomfortable answering,
since I am the upstream maintainer and am not aware of anyone except me
using it on this list. And more generally, most people seem to be happy
with the fgfs command line, or FGRun, or the built-in Qt launcher, so...

The packaging I provide is probably not too bad, but not perfect either:

E: ffgo source: source-is-missing docs/README.conditional-config/_static/jquery.js
E: ffgo source: source-is-missing docs/README.conditional-config/_static/underscore.js
W: ffgo: image-file-in-usr-lib usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/ffgo/data/pics/thumbnail-no-Pillow.gif
W: ffgo: image-file-in-usr-lib usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/ffgo/data/pics/thumbnail-not-avail.png

The .js files are created (copied) by the Sphinx documentation system.
As for the image files, some shuffling around with a symlink would
certainly do, but given the IMHO uselessness of this lib vs. share
distinction in today's systems, compared to the burden it creates for
Python packaging, I didn't waste time "fixing" it for an unofficial
package.
