Can you make the current harbour available for download?

(compiling tarballs seems to scare a lot of people away). I'm maintaining Debian packages (I'll push them into regular Debian for 0.3), but a Gentoo ebuild and an RPM would be really nice as well. I use gentoo, but a ebuild seems difficult, since it depends on ogre-0.14.1, and latest ebuild is 0.14.0, but I could try to do that.. I'm not aware of a specific new feature in 0.14.1 that freebooters depends on? Did you get a broken build when compiling with 0.14.0? Cheers, Moritz
[Freebooters-devel] Status update
Hi, I've been busy with replacing my notebook (which has the nice side effect that have 3D accelleration with the new one) and pay check work, but a quick status update: I'm planning to add collision detection and preliminary scene manager functionality into the seatravel code during the week (though I won't be able to check in anything as won't have internet access through my notebook). On top of that I'll add the decoration Kabutor has made so far (namely trees and the arrow). After that in the middle of the next week we should make a 0.2.2 release to get some more feedback about the 3D stuff so that 0.3 can have proper inter island sea travel and a full 3D world. So if anyone has pending work that should make it into 0.2.2 please speak out :-) Christoph, can you recheck that the current codebase compiles and runs with mingw32? In the mid term it would be very nice if we had more packaged download possibilities (compiling tarballs seems to scare a lot of people away). I'm maintaining Debian packages (I'll push them into regular Debian for 0.3), but a Gentoo ebuild and an RPM would be really nice as well. Cheers, Moritz
