Hi all,

Extracted some info from my IRC logs about issues with Yo Frankie!:

Aug 27 22:53:26 <Baby>  is anybody thinking about packaging apricot?
Aug 27 22:53:30 <Baby>  http://www.yofrankie.org/?page_id=15
Aug 27 23:00:03 <Rhonda>        Don't forget that you need to replace the Yo 
Frankie! logo
Aug 27 23:00:24 <Rhonda>        "Excluded from the Creative Commons is: ... Yo 
Frankie! logo"
Aug 27 23:00:49 <Baby>  yup, we have to rename it too as iceweasel?
Aug 27 23:01:26 <Rhonda>        Doesn't sound like. It says logo, not wording.
Aug 27 23:01:45 <Baby>  cool :)

Jul 27 00:01:19 <DPic>  can somebody get yo frankie packaged? 
Jul 27 00:02:23 <pabs>  DPic: looks like someone already is: 
http://bugs.debian.org/497859
Jul 27 00:03:20 <DPic>  pabs, last post was from may
Jul 27 00:03:37 <pabs>  correct
Jul 27 00:03:46 <pabs>  last time I looked at it, upstream didn't seem very sane
Jul 27 00:04:10 <DPic>  how so? 
Jul 27 00:04:58 <pabs>  no releases, just SVN
Jul 27 00:05:20 <pabs>  multiple engines with no clarity about the difference
Jul 27 00:06:35 <DPic>  ah
Jul 27 00:09:02 <pabs>  probably changed since then
Jul 27 00:09:39 <DPic>  it's a great game to show off what can be done with all 
FLOSS software
Jul 27 00:10:28 <pabs>  DPic: anyways, best send a ping to the bug and Runa to 
find out what the progress is
Jul 27 00:10:51 <DPic>  Runa? 
Jul 27 00:10:58 <pabs>  the person doing the packaging
Jul 27 00:11:14 <pabs>  reading the bug helps :)
Jul 27 00:11:36 *       pabs looking at upstream
Jul 27 00:11:47 <pabs>  120Mb zip file, ouch
Jul 27 00:12:54 <pabs>  I guess the crystal space version is no longer 
developed, the download for it is from Sept 2008
Jul 27 00:13:57 <DPic>  what was even the difference?
Jul 27 00:14:07 <pabs>  no idea
Jul 27 00:16:02 *       pabs looks at the blender version zip
Jul 27 00:16:30 <pabs>  ahh, looks like this is the binary version
Jul 27 00:17:57 <pabs>  doesn't look like there is any copyright info at all
Jul 27 00:18:07 <pabs>  only two files have a license
Jul 27 00:19:28 *       pabs tries svn
Jul 27 00:20:58 <pabs>  SVN server isn't responding
Jul 27 00:21:35 <pabs>  egads, the zip file includes a whole bunch of windows 
stuff
Jul 27 00:21:41 <pabs>  precompiled no less
Jul 27 00:21:58 *       pabs feels his eyes bleeding
Jul 27 00:23:06 <pabs>  hmm, .blend files have weird paths embedded in them: 
/usr/home/intrr/blender/blend/
Jul 27 00:23:11 <pabs>  wtf is /usr/home
Jul 27 00:27:15 <pabs>  some of the windows stuff is GPL and I don't see any 
source so that is a GPL violation
Jul 27 00:29:53 <pabs>  one of the sounds looks like it came from 
freesound.org, which is under a decidedly non-free license
Jul 27 00:31:46 <pabs>  make that two sounds
Jul 27 00:32:08 <pabs>  3
Jul 27 00:33:51 <pabs>  I wonder about source code for some of the images
Jul 27 00:34:26 <pabs>  there is a font embedded in one of the images, I wonder 
which font that is
Jul 27 00:36:52 <pabs>  ah, the ttf in the tarball must be it
Jul 27 00:37:22 <pabs>  would be nice to have the .sfd source for that ttf
Jul 27 00:39:59 <pabs>  so, in short, not yet ready to be packaged for Debian
Jul 27 00:41:24 <stevecotton>   :(  thanks for trying
Jul 27 00:41:55 <pabs>  DPic, stevecotton: feel free to post the above to the 
bug log
