gdb reveals that this is infinite recursion (or at least, recursion until you
run out of memory). FS_PureServerSetLoadedPaks calls FS_Restart, which calls
FS_PureServerSetLoadedPaks, and so on.

This, in turn, turns out to be because the OA pak files were deleted from the
search path, which (as it happens) was a consequence of a bug recently fixed
upstream. Updated package on the way...

Bug#613692: openarena: Freezes when a new map is loaded

[Alejandro Exojo Piqueras]

Package: openarena
Version: 0.8.5-7
Severity: important

Hi.

I've upgraded from 0.8.5-5, and I've seen some small glitches here or there,
but I've found one important issue. When you are playing on a (remote) server,
when a match is won, and a new map is loaded, the game hangs. I started it from
a console, and I think is due to the game entering in an infinite loop, because
it writes to the output again and again the same text:

--
1383 files in pk3 files
- FS_Startup -
Current search path:
/home/alex/.openarena/CTF/zz-proskins2.pk3 (8 files)
/home/alex/.openarena/CTF/z-gpl-q3a2oa-textures.pk3 (1375 files)
/home/alex/.openarena/CTF
/usr/lib/games/openarena/CTF
/home/alex/.openarena/0.5
/usr/lib/games/openarena/0.5

This is written repeatedly on the console, and the game is irresponsible, and 
has to be killed to recover the control of mouse and keyboard.

It happens only after you've played a match and the new map is loaded, or if
you connect to a server where the match in place is in a map that you don't
have (in that case, the map is downloaded OK, but then the new map is tryed to
be loaded and the game freezes like the other case).

I've tryied, just in case, to start OpenArena removing almost all the content
on ~/.openarena, but still.

Thank you.
