Hello Robbi,

It is possible to test a stable package in Debian sid. You can create a minimal debootstrap of the stable distribution, then chroot to it and install the 0ad-data/bullseye package. Here are example commands for this. I don't think that it is strictly required that you do this in order to close the bug report, but if you want to be extra thorough then you can do this before closing the report. There is a remote possibility that there is a bug in 0ad-data triggered by obscure hardware. Commands preceded by a # indicate that you should run them as root or with sudo.

# apt-get install debootstrap
# mkdir /bullseye
# debootstrap  bullseye /bullseye https://deb.debian.org/debian
# chroot /bullseye
# apt-get update

Note that if networking isn't working in the chroot then you likely need to configure the DNS resolver, such as in /etc/resolv.conf.

# apt-get upgrade
# apt-get install 0ad-data/bullseye 0ad-data-common/bullseye 0ad/bullseye

When it finishes, you can exit the chroot by typing exit or pressing Ctrl-D.

# exit
