Package: alex4
Severity: normal
Version: 1.1-2
The `alex4' command currently doesn't honor the value of the
HOME environment variable while reading its configuration, and
uses the value from the user's passwd(5) entry instead, contrary
to what the rest of the system does, e. g.:
nob...@home $ HOME=/var/tmp/test
nob...@home $ export HOME
nob...@home $ ls -d ~/
/var/tmp/test/
nob...@home $ alex4
Error creating dir /nonexistent/.alex4 : No such file or directory
(Indeed, the home directory for the `nobody' user is filed as
`/nonexistent' in passwd(5).)
This prevents one from choosing a different directory for the
game files to be saved under.
PS. A quick scan through the Debian Policy Manual didn't reveal a
requirement for the programs to use $HOME and not the passwd(5)
entry, but I bet it really should be there.

[ Paul Wise ]
* Add a watch file explaining the upstream status
.
[ Peter De Wachter ]
* Honor the HOME environment variable. (Closes: #507950)
* Applied a patch to bring down the game's CPU usage to a more reasonable
level. This limits the frame rate to 50Hz (the speed of the game logic).
This also fixes a bug that made the level selection screen unresponsive
on some systems.
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.1:
- Renamed 'configure' target to 'patch'.
* Rename from-fedora.patch to unix-port.patch
* Refresh debian/copyright
* rules: clean up
