Hello Alex,
One last question: did you try to install the amd64 version specifically?
I'm not sure how the multi-arch support works these days. If not, would it
be easy for you to try to do it?
Yes, my tests were done on my regular amd64 desktop installation.
That was with widelands_18-3+b1_amd64.deb.
Thank you for taking the time to look into the issue! I wish I could
downgrade the libboost packages needed to compile the source code to see if
the build would have the bug or not. They are not in the dependencies but
are on the build-deps: https://packages.debian.org/source/jessie/widelands
I am actually running Squeeze with some packages from Stretch.
I did a manual build from the source code and the game runs fine, with
these exact packages you listed for me. I am still suspecting the problem
to be libboost (check the bug report I mentioned earlier for why) even
though I can't be sure. I guess I should probably close the bug if we
cannot reproduce it, since it could be due to my weird package mix?
For the fun of it I tried to really reproduce the situation (qemu-VM):
- installed Squeeze LTS with LXDE
- added Stretch sources.list
But I was not able to cleanly install widelands via apt.
Trying to manually installing via dpkg led also to some (for me)
unresolvable dependencies (without doing nearly half of the dist-upgrade).
Therefore I am short before thinking that now your package system is in
an inconsistent state.

As I think you also did a libc-upgrade (2.11.3-4+deb6u5 to 2.19-18 ?)
I cannot say how a downgrade of it has to be done.
Probably a dist-upgrade to Jessie or Stretch could work ...
(But for this to work the package system needs to be consistent - you
have checked what "apt-get install -f" proposes?)
---------
At least, the problem this report was opened for seems to be a result of
the package mix of Squeeze and Stretch.
Kind regards,
Bernhard
