[opensuse-factory] new package: crawl
Hello, I'm new to this list and I want to propose the addition of the package 'crawl' to devel:openSUSE:Factory. It contains the Stone Soup version of Dungeon Crawl, a rogue-like game much like Nethack. It isreleased under GPLv2 and is one of the most popular rogue-likes and very actively developed. Still, it hasn't been packaged yet. I was working on the package for quite some time now and I think it's in a good shape to get some reviews on it. The game consists of a terminal-version and a SDL-based tiled version which are split across the packages 'crawl' and 'crawl-sdl'. Currently they are found in the project 'home:saschpe'. -- Kind regards, Sascha Peilicke http://saschpe.wordpress.com
Hi Sascha, I would suggest you forward your package to the games repository. We have a more relaxed 'policy' when it comes to updates than the distribution itself, which could make it easier for the future maintenance. If the game is of high interest we might of course try to pursue to really add it to the distributions base repository. To forward your package to the games repo / have the package reviewed, you can use osc sr home:saschpe crawl-sdl games Give a short description and anything you think is special to know.

Already in "games" repo. Thanks! PS: I cleaned the spec file a bit, so it might be broken these days. Should be fixed once I'm done. -- Best Regards / S pozdravom, Pavol RUSNAK SUSE LINUX, s.r.o openSUSE Boosters Team Lihovarska 1060/12 PGP 0xA6917144 19000 Praha 9, CR prusnak[at]suse.cz http://www.suse.cz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Thanks for breaking the SPEC file without asking or even testing. Crawl is very similar to Nethack and thus it _has_ to install junk into some odd places. I'm not fully aware of OBS commit policies but osc commit log messages like "fix" don't really help reverting that nonsense either. -- Sascha Peilicke http://saschpe.wordpress.com
don't worry, every single commit is trackable.. it's a VCS after all. For the one marked as 'fix' for example you can have a look at: osc log games crawl (which gives you a small overview with commit messages, finding the one you're interested in... the one marked 'fix' for example is revision 4. so you can issue osc rdiff games crawl -r4 and this will give you the exact changes applied. Using 'osc checkout -r 4' you can even checkout exactly this specific version. Thus it should be able to track down the missing pieces and parts. As for the actions done by Pavol: I'm sure there are best intentions. Maybe in this case the 'commit early / commit often' was not the approach appreciated by you and you would have preferred a full change of the spec before commit. But then: he could as well just have rejected it with comments and have you fix it all according to the requirements (which are much more relaxed in the games repo than in openSUSE:Factory for example). I hope nevertheless this won't scare you off and we will continue seeing a lot of your contributions.
