Hello, I guess that the packages are now ready to upload, and I'm willing to do so in the next, but I would really appreciate your review first, please.
I reduced the amount of patches to its minimum. In particular, I'm not renaming the binary nor adding a helper script file. Instead, I got the flare engine binary to refuse starting without a game specied. If someone simply types "flare", s/he gets: | flare: You must specify a game to play on the command line. Example: | flare --game=flare-game I guess that this is good enough. Upstream is aware of the problem: https://github.com/clintbellanger/flare-engine/issues/1039 Then, I simply added two lintian overrides for errors that are due to the split between packages. I checked, and these overrides are common in other games that come with engine/data packages produced by separate source packages. flare-engine source: version-substvar-for-external-package flare-engine -> flare-game flare-game: desktop-command-not-in-package usr/share/applications/flare.desktop usr/games/flare So I think this is it. The game is finally correctly packaged. Could you please have a look before I upload this? Thanks, Mt. -- It goes against the grain of modern education to teach children to program.
