Bug Description

Binary package hint: wormux

Wormux crashed before it even started. I used the menu shortcut. When I try to launch Wormux in Terminal, it gives me the following:

$ wormux

(upstream autor)

font=0x0 indicates TTF_OpenFont might have failed. Normally, an error should have been printed in such case.

It might be a font file problem: either the usual file is missing or the FONT_FILE environment variable mentions an invalid file.

Hm.. Is this bug still appearing in 0.9.2? If not, somebody should mark it as fixed.

I consider it fixed: 0.8beta2 is *very* old, and I do remember reworking font support and fixing bugs (not sure I can match this bug report to any of our bugtracker).

It's a matter of backporting then (0.9.2). I know there's a ppa somewhere but I have no idea where it's located and what it provides.

Maybe I'll update this with more info about this ppa and any bug report I find.

The PPA address (not maintained by me) is: https://launchpad.net/~wormux/+archive/ppa?field.series_filter=lucid

While I don't know much about ppas, the above page seems to list 0.9.2 as available for Lucid. The Wormux project only supports the latest release, due to for instance the network changes making older versions unlikely to be played and so on. So a major difference if using that ppa (highly recommended) is that any bug will have to be submitted upstream at https://gna.org/bugs/?group=wormux

Thanks

#10

An upload of linux-firmware to xenial-proposed has been rejected from the upload queue for the following reason: "It seems the debian/changelog has the wrong bug attached - LP: #174363 seems like a very old bug for a completely different package. Apparently a digit got lost somewhere. Please fix the changelog entry and re-upload.".
