Demo2/Patch 1.3 Comments

Postby madman2k » Mon Oct 03, 2005 12:02 pm

since the game itself runs fine here, I will comment the installer.

- its GTK1 (ok, this should go to the loki devs)
- the darwinia.desktop file should look like this:

Code: Select all

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=darwinia
Comment=weird strategy game
Comment[de]=eigenartiges Strategie-Spiel
Exec=/usr/local/games/darwinia/darwinia
Icon=/usr/local/games/darwinia/darwinian.png
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Application;Game;


instead of:

Code: Select all

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=darwinia
Comment=
Exec=/usr/local/games/darwinia/darwinia
Icon=/usr/local/games/darwinia/darwinian.png
Terminal=0
Type=Application
Categories=Application;Game[b]s[/b];X-Red-Hat-Base;


the most importand change, which couses that darwinia is mis-categorized, is highlighted.
edit: *should be highlighted...

Right, thanks, I'll fix that. If there is anybody interested in helping me convert to autopackage, that would be greatly appreciated. I understand that autopackage has a much smoother graphical appearance.
