yo frankie only shows some clouds, game doesn't start

[Florian Hars]

On startup, yo frankie only shows some clouds accompagnied by a repeating musical motif. The only key that has
some effect is Ecsc, which closes the game.

This is the error output:

As to this line:

% dpkg -L yofrankie | grep bgeconf
(no results)

The zip download from the site runs fine.

Same thing here using Ubuntu 14.04 (64), version 1.1b~svn106-0ubuntu1

+1 Ubuntu 14.04 64bit

I get the same behaviour from the zip download from the site, but with different errors in my console.

[Singpolyma (singpolyma)]

I think the problem is that newest blender bindings are for python3, and the game is written in python2

Using the binary from the zip works... so maybe it's packaging older BGE?
