[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 608806] Re: wrong version is packaged: 1.8 not 1.9

[Jon Dowland]

Jeroen, I don't know what problem you are referring to but version
1.9-1.1 in all versions of Ubuntu carry doom1.wad (lowercase) and
version 1.9.fixed-2 in Debian also carry doom1.wad (lowercase).  Your
problem is something else and not related to this bug.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: doom-wad-shareware

doom-wad-shareware claims to be version 1.9 of the upstream IWAD but is in fact 1.8. See http://doom.wikia.com/wiki/DOOM1.WAD for a table of MD5 hashes for the various versions.

If you run chocolate-doom and leave it to play a demo, it will quit out and complain with

"*** You may need to upgrade your version of Doom to v1.9. ***
    See: http://doomworld.com/files/patches.shtml
    This appears to be v1.8."

This bug is common to the upstream Debian package.
