Warzone2100 2.3 Ubuntu\Debian Package

Post by Terminator »

I have managed to make a package for debian-like OS. Don't know how well it is but I hope users will tell about.

Warzone2100 2.3 -- made with checkinstall on Kubuntu 10.04 LTS.

new link added: Download warzone2100_2.3.0-1_i386.deb from FileFactory.com

p.s. I want someone from moderators put this pack to download section. (Hopefully it will help pure users who can't install latest version of the game.)

If we wanted a .deb, we'd probably get it from http://www.playdeb.net/software/Warzone2100

Didn't know about that place. So why that link still not in download section ?

Because Debian and Ubuntu dislike it, because they think the only place people should get software should be their repositories.

And why do you care whether they do or not (sounds like some other company I know with their app store hint, hint :annoyed: )

They're the ones who ensure the majority of downloads of Warzone on Linux, and the project is on good terms with them right now, and they're good for arbitrating copyright disputes.

Ah you do have a good point. Can you not submit the new version to them for updating the repositories though?

Packages are usually made by their maintainers, it's best to remind them about update. ;-)
