Package: zangband
Version: 2.7.4b
Severity: normal

I have not reproduced this issue with the Debian package.  I'm
reporting this bug to Debian anyway because upstream's BTS is
unpleasant.

I unpacked the zangband 2.7.4b source tarball, compile it and ran it
in-place (i.e. with no "make install" step).  I note that
lib/apex/scores.raw is updated each time my character dies (based on
file timestamp), but always remains a zero-byte file.  Copying
z_scores.raw to scores.raw makes zangband see the example high scores,
and the timestamp changes on death, but the file contents do not.

This was done in my home directory, $HOME is on an NFS filesystem.
Moving the directory tree to /var/tmp (on an XFS filesystem) caused
high scores to work correctly.

In the Debian package, the score file is stored in /var.  While
unlikely, it is theoretically possible for /var to be an NFS
partition.  Therefore this bug MAY affect Debian's zangband package in
unusual circumstances.
