[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 298992] Re: ROTT freezes after a short while

[Mathieu Comandon]

i agree with Antonio.
Since the package is unusable without timidity, it should be a mandatory dependency of the rott package
It's pretty damn simple to fix it

Hi there,

I don't know if anyone ever tried this package, but it seems to have a serious bug. It runs perfectly fine at the beginning, but the whole game freezes after a few seconds and simply does nothing anymore. This happens everytime, no matter what I set before. I always have to kill that process after that :-/

The terminal output doesn't show anything unusual:

Can anyone confirm this?
