Package: tomatoes
Version: 1.55-1
Severity: normal

I just had a go of tomatoes. I hadn't looked at the dependencies so I
didn't know it required OpenGL (I'm using the xorg nv driver, so no 3D).
It changed my screen res to 640x480 or something (from 1280x960) and
then made the screen black for a bit. Couldn't get a response out of it
so I switched to VT1, logged in and issued "killall tomatoes",
unfortunately that had no effect, so I did "killall -9 tomatoes". That
left me with an unusably small screen. Tried starting it again and got
to the startup screen, which didn't respond to me. Killed it a few more
times as I tried to make it set the screen back to what I was using
before by creating a config file. That didn't work (no change in res),
so I resorted to xrandr from VT1, which crashed X, but that is a
separate bug. 

In summary:

      * please make tomatoes respond to SIGTERM gracefully - i.e. in
        such a way that it sets the screen back to what it was before it
        started and then exits.
      * maybe add "3D" or "OpenGL" to the package description
