I've asked upstream about this some months ago without any answer. I've just downloaded it, and now the files have a small notice on them. maybe now it'd be anough. (Btw, I loved the game and I'm willing to help if needed. Perhaps it would be a good idea to move the packaging to the pkg-games repo.) I'm fine if the pkg-games team wants qonk, although I'll not be able to join another group, the perl group is enough for me :). -- Martín Ferrari

The Makefile needs some fixing: - use $(shell ...) instead of ``. - -W -Wall -g in CFLAGS And one maybe serious warning: planets.cpp:331: warning: no return statement in function returning non-void And maybe it should go to the next level on its own without having to restart. :) Apart from this it looks like a nice game.

Hi! Thanks for your comments! The Makefile needs some fixing: - use $(shell ...) instead of ``. - -W -Wall -g in CFLAGS Also I think I have to make it possible to disable -O. -g shouldn't be only for debugging? And one maybe serious warning: planets.cpp:331: warning: no return statement in function returning non-void I will fix it. And maybe it should go to the next level on its own without having to restart. :) Yeah, upstream acknowledges that :) There is a shell script mentioned in the website that supposedly does the job, I will check if it's suitable. Apart from this it looks like a nice game. Runs on amd64. Cool! Thanks again! -- Martín Ferrari

You should (must?) always build with -g and the stip the result after installing them in debian/qonk. This allows users to build the package locally and run gdb ./qonk or to send you a core file that you can use with your local unstriped qonk. You can also support the no opt option to switch -O2 on and off. Sometimes you need that for debugging. Not very often though.

It should just have a loop inside main() that restarts in the next level. Shouldn't be that hard. With a shell script the screen would flicker between levels, not nice.
