Re: New Port: FreeCiv SDL
 
is the current extras-devel version working ok with nothing more but installation via app manager or we have to do some extra things to get it going?

This is my first post on Maemo.org. I made the mistake of installing this app a little early and like many of you i am unable to install the broken app. Since then I have only being installing apps from the testing rep. Anyway... My efforts to uninstall this app have been unsuccessful. I have enabled root access and tried to install bash via the terminal ( apt-get install bash ), but this failed, a number of possible reasons listed. The working method seems to be to change bash to sh, however i dont understand what this means nor how to do it. I'm not an experienced linux user but i'm fine with copying commands into the terminal. I dont want to do anything where there is a risk of further damage. Please could somone spare some time to provide a step by step guide to uninstall this broken app using the bash->sh method. Many thanks & Cheers... :)
Try this:
Code:
sudo gainroot
apt-get install bash
then uninstall freeciv from app manager.

Ooops. Thought it was a new post.

It may have been removed when it broke the repo, but i thought that was an older version.

ldrn: did this old port prove to be too much of a broken PITA?

It should have been an older version that was removed -- according to the package manager, it should be there, but of course isn't. I'm trying to figure out why.

I thought it was going rather well, actually. :( It could be something to do with the new update.

The UQM version in -devel mysteriously disappeared in the same way, but it had a missing dependency. Maybe some automated cleanup process is the culprit.

Bump up the version number and include any changes and reupload i guess. Worked for uqm...

Re: New Port: FreeCiv SDL
 
Great advice -- I did it, and Freeciv should be back in devel now.

PR1.1 changed how SDL apps work, though... it turns out there's a minor graphical glitch in the in-program task switch button when it's actually used. I'll need to fix that before I promote it to Testing again.
