Thank you! You just made me go back to look at this code again.

When I first started doing this package, I fully intended to keep maintaining it - but then several things conspired against it, which has caused it to be unmaintained (by me at least) for a year now...
I do hope to get back into things with my FR, but... well, we'll see.


evening I finally realised that (a) the necessary code, i.e. Frode
Austvik's patches, is all already in the Debian source package; and

Actually, most of them have been included upstream, which is probably where Debian got them from... I just removed a bunch of patches from my repository because they're no longer needed. :)

I've still got a couple left though... and made a new one just now... I should probably try to push those upstream as well.

Looking at the Debian source package, it has several other patches I don't, that could be quite useful on the FR (I'm not sure what's actually used and not, but one patch mentions using a shared lib for the shared code, and another mentions building all games into one binary to share the code that way... either could be nice for space).

I should probably have based mine on the deb package to start with, instead of reinventing stuff... ohwell, at least this way I built trunk, and had an idea of what patches are actually used.


(b) it's quite easy to rebuild the package (on the FR) to enable it:

Heh, this is something I hadn't really considered - building it *on* the FR. :) Thinking about it though, that would probably make several issues I had with building it easier - such as generating the icons (which requires an X server, and hence binaries native to the compiling system... which caused me to compile twice when cross-compiling :P ).


# vi puzzles.h

Comment out the "#ifdef _WIN32_WCE" and "#endif" around a group of
defines for "Pocket PC devices", which are equally applicable to the
FR.

It already is, sortof - basically, replace the "debian/rules binary" command with this one:

CFLAGS="-D_WIN32_WCE" debian/rules binary
