Hello, All!

With the help from Clive Crous, I have ported Vulture's Eye to Maemo5. The binary package is now available from Extras-Testing. It is optified too, so do not be afraid to install it. The source package is coming if/when it makes through the autobuilder.

Vulture's Eye is a version of Nethack with Diablo-like 3D user interface. It is pretty neat and works well on N900 (although some intro screens do not quite fit). Here is a few screenshots, taken on the PC:





PS: And do not forget to vote, or it never goes to Extras!

Continue clicking on them. In fact, the game works just like the desktop version, so refer to that.

Argh. NEVER send people to -devel or -testing without a CLEAR warning please. "Do not be afraid to install it" is exactly the wrong advice.

Ok. You make sure the Extras promotion threshold is lowered to 5 votes, as has been agreed in an IRC meeting about one month ago (jeremiah knows about this). And I make sure I warn people about Extras-Testing every time it is mentioned. Deal?

Why upload the binary package to non-free, but the source to the autobuilder? You\'ll end up with it [\"it\" being the binary package, too] being in free, as well as non-free.

Instead, just upload the source package to non-free, too (done using dput; just upload the *_source.changes to non-free). This is what I did for Jagged Alliance 2: http://repository.maemo.org/extras-d.../source/j/ja2/
