Hello,
I want to update the package ja2-stracciatella in the games repository
to version 0.17.0.
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:Kieltux:branches:games/ja2-stra...
The new version needs the library string_theory which is not available
for openSUSE.
The build process wants to download string_theory from github, because
it is not found.

Can I add string_theory (string_theory-3.1.tar.gz) manually to the
package and patch the build process?
Thank you,
Carsten

Well, since MS cant be sure of the username of someone downloading
things, they are going to play it safe and have everything dowloaded
and executed by Explorer as suid root. That way, it will run on ANY
system anywhere. :)
