[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 1397098] Re: Airstrike contains several packaging bugs

[Markus Koschany]

Hello,

as the README in /usr/share/doc/airstrike states, the game is not
finished yet. Unfortunately it has been in this state for more than 10
years now and it would be great if someone continued the work on it.

The game contains no sound files. You can verify that by checking the source package.
airstrikerc is in /etc/airstrikerc and the game will read and use the configuration from this file. However it is a global configuration file and you must use sudo to modify the file. There are no user specific configuration files.

So in short: It is not a packaging bug. The game is simply not finished.

Title:
  Airstrike contains several packaging bugs

Status in “airstrike” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I found two major bugs for this game:

  - The Sound files are not installed therefore the sound is missing. 
  - The airstrikerc file is not where the commandline says (e.g. ~/.airstrikerc), it's actually in /etc/airstrikerc which is not writable and settings cannot be saved

  I don't think this was a problem in previous Ubuntu versions.
