By some coincidence, i just happened to have set up Squeeze on an old
machine so i could have access to the Qt stuff i can't use on my Mac. I noted
that Freeciv in the Debian repository is somewhat behind the times - is there
anything we can do on our end to encourage them to step up to a more recent
version, or are we completely at the packager's mercy here? Hmm, let me look
up the packager. In any case, i will poke around and see what i can find about
these three problems. I've a hunch #2 might have something to do with SELinux?
