You are looking at the package description of wesnoth-core, *not* of wesnoth in jaunty: <http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/wesnoth> vs. <http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/wesnoth-core> > Firstly, this description is easy to miss.

I am not really sure why you call the music a "critical" component, it isn't needed at all? It is nice to have of course, but "critical" is something completely different. > Users should not be expected to hunt around to get the game they want > to work working. ... and they aren't anymore since the jaunty release because jaunty comes with the complete suite (minus the server) when installing the wesnoth package. Or does gnome-app-install only offer wesnoth-core for installation but not wesnoth itself? I'm not on an ubuntu system myself so I can't check that part. Thanks anyway! Rhonda -- wesnoth-all meta-package request (for gnome-app-install) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/82436 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Debian/Ubuntu Games Team, which is subscribed to wesnoth in ubuntu. Status in The gnome application installer: Confirmed Status in “wesnoth” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “wesnoth” package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: New users of Linux/Ubuntu will see gnome-app-install and simply assume that is how you get a program installed. Currently when you install "wesnoth" you get no music and no campaigns this makes the package almost useless. My spec as such is for a meta-package called wesnoth-all which would install wesnoth along with all of it's extra packages for inclusion into gnome-app-install. This means then that new users need only use this package and have a game ready to rock straight away. _______________________________________________ Pkg-games-ubuntu mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-games-ubuntu
