Ok, this might be the reason, since there are no compatible games announced right now. OK, tcpdump reveals that freeciv loads the data from metaserver. See also this forum post: http://forum.freeciv.org/viewtopic.php?t=7009 A message "no servers with your freeciv version" might be suitable. > "-t" doesn't take filename with path, but just part from > .tilespec. So try with "-t trident". yes, i tried that before. What remains is: starting problems from command line (wrong path/environment?) no hint for missing servers in metaserver no hint for gaming zone (?) good luck Christian -- Christian Knoke* * *http://cknoke.de * * * * * * * * * Ceterum censeo Microsoft esse dividendum. ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

It's not so much about freeciv packager, but about Debian's general policy. They will not incorporate new upstream releases, not even purely bugfix ones, to their released versions. Since they had freeciv version 2.2.1 at the time when squeeze entered freeze (many months before release), 2.2.1 will be squeeze's freeciv version when it's retired. New freeciv releases usually make it relatively quickly to debian development version repos (latest is 2.2.7-2 at the moment) - ML ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

In fact 1) Correct URL is "http://meta.freeciv.org/metaserver.phtml";, though "http://meta.freeciv.org/"; should work at the moment. 2) It's the default metaserver, so no need to explicitly give it (in server side you need to give "-m" if you want it listed to metaserver) - ML ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

I don't know, last couple of weeks I've had a lot of trouble with freeciv.org DNS even with browsers. Occasionally "http://meta.freeciv.org/"; has even lead me to wikia... (like www.freeciv.org should) Also, remember that client shows only compatible servers while browsers shows all. And yes, due to nature of how dns information propagates, I've had no trouble in connecting meta.freeciv.org from computer I've had remote connection to same time as local machine has been unable to find it. > 3) client -t option is ignored > > all Freeciv* packages are installed. > > chris@leo:~$ freeciv-gtk2 -M 'meta.freeciv.org' -t > /usr/share/games/freeciv/trident.tilespec > 1: Invalid NULL default string for option default_tileset_name. > 1: In option_str_set() (../../client/options.c, line 1393): assertion 'NULL > != str' failed. "-t" doesn't take filename with path, but just part from .tilespec. So try with "-t trident". - ML ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

Jul 2010 > -/usr/share/games/freeciv/trident.tilespec 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?
