Thanks for reporting.
While testing I found that this issue is still present in emacs23, even
the version available in 14.04. However, the score file is created and
behaves as expected in emacs24 24.5+1-6ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 16.04. I
skimmed through the changelog, but didn't find any explicit reference to
what fixed it, so I am unsure what or if a patch could be made and
applied to older releases.
** Also affects: emacs24 (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Changed in: emacs24 (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Fix Released
** Changed in: emacs23 (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
** Description changed:
When finished playing the snake game that is included in Emacs23, it tries to
update a non-existing scores file. The error message is:
Failed to access scores file: No such file or directory.
The problem can be fixed by adding these lines to .emacs:
(setq snake-score-file
- "~/.emacs.d/snake-scores")
+ "~/.emacs.d/snake-scores")
- This bug is similar to #577914 (Missing scores file in Tetris).
