Once someone puts E libs in debian unstable... yes.
Until then I recommend using
easy_e17.sh
http://omicron.homeip.net/projects/#easy_e17.sh
It downloads and installs E17. Works a treat.

I noted ;-) It's cool - I was just a bit surprised you had done a few,
but not all.

Absolutely - it's a quick way for us to get AIs to compete with humans
on more complex games.
Even basic games can get an advantage if the AIs plan attacks or even
just build plans together.

I'll see you there then ;-)

Just copying yours ;-)
